Ravens Cut Roster to 53 Ahead of Season

The Baltimore Ravens are facing tough decisions as they prepare to trim their roster from 90 to 53 players by the upcoming deadline. Following a disappointing 30-7 loss to the Green Bay Packers, injuries have further complicated roster evaluations, particularly with running back Owen Wright and center Nick Samac facing uncertain futures. The Ravens are likely to place running back Keaton Mitchell on the physically unable to perform list, allowing for roster flexibility. Concerns remain about the offensive line's performance, which has been inconsistent throughout the preseason. General manager Eric DeCosta may also explore trade opportunities or free agent signings to bolster the roster. As they finalize their squad, the Ravens will employ strategies that allow for the potential return of certain players from injured reserve after the first four weeks of the season.
