Baltimore #Ravens 16-man practice squad prediction ahead of final roster cutdowns via @Thacover2NFL
The Ravens are counting down to the Tuesday afternoon deadline in which the organization will have to trim their roster down to 53 players, with a 16-man practice squad to be formed hours afterward.
With recent changes to the practice squad, NFL teams are able to utilize a farm system of versatile players to interchange weekly based on injury, opponent, or roster manipulation.

With the Ravens set for a Monday morning practice, here’s our final prediction for the team’s 16-man practice squad.
