Nigel Warrior joins former Vol with Baltimore Ravens.

BALTIMORE – Former Tennessee safety Nigel Warrior has signed with the Baltimore Ravens as an undrafted free agent, joining one fellow former Tennessee player in long snapper Morgan Cox.

Cox is a veteran with the defending AFC North champions, having spent his entire career with the Ravens after signing as an undrafted free agent in 2010. He has three Pro Bowl appearances during his career.

Cox was the starting long snapper for the Vols in the 2007-09 seasons, playing under both Phillip Fulmer and Lane Kiffin.

Warrior is coming off the best year of his career as a senior in 2019, with an All-SEC stint that included 70 tackles and four interceptions. He joins a Ravens defensive backfield that includes stars such as Marlon Humphrey, Marcus Peters and Earl Thomas.

The Ravens are coming off a 14-2 season that ended with an upset loss to the Tennessee Titans in the AFC divisional round, but are expected to return as Super Bowl contenders in 2020.
