  1. Roster Fun: Do You Know The Newbies?

    Injuries and COVID have combined to force the Ravens to add a number of new players to the 53-man roster. Some of these players were street FAs, some were waived by other teams, and some were practice squad players. How well do you know the roster they used on Wednesday? I put together a small quiz. I picked out 21 players and split them into 4 difficulty groups. I've given you there number. Can you give me their name?

    Full disclosure: If I could give the list to me before I made it, I don't think I'd be able to get all of these right, the last two categories in particular.

    Thanks for trying it out everybody! I'll post the answers a bit later (want to give everyone a chance). If you're too impatient to wait that long, PM me.

    Terrell Bonds wears jersey number 38. He is also currently on IR. 33 is Davontae Harris, a CB recently signed off waivers from the Broncos. He replaced Peters for 4 plays in Q3 and had a huge PD near the goal-line at (Q3, 00:46).

  12. Re: Roster Fun: Do You Know The Newbies?

    I want to bump the answers to page 2, so here's a quick post with some details of the recent signings.

    Per my research, 3 Ravens made their professional debuts on Wednesday. 2 others made their NFL debuts (having played in the XFL and AAF). 3 more players made their 2020 debuts, and 3 made their Ravens debut (10 players total here, as 1 player made both his 2020 debut and his debut for the Ravens simultaneously).

    6 of those players have been on the practice squad the entire season (signed on 2020/09/06). 1 was added on 2020/09/22, 2 others were added in November (2020/11/17 and 2020/11/24). All of these players were called up to the active roster on game day as replacements for players on the COVID reserve.

    The final player of those 10 was claimed on waivers on 2020/11/18 but was not added to the active roster until 2020/11/30.
