BALTIMORE — A day after failing to make the Baltimore Ravens’ 53-man active roster, a pair of former University of Tennessee football players discovered that the team had a place for them after all.
Defensive back Nigel Warrior and tight end Eli Wolf were assigned to Baltimore’s practice squad on Sunday.
Both players were released as the team trimmed its roster to 53 on Saturday.
Warrior, the son of former Vol and All-Pro defensive back Dale Carter, was not drafted in the spring, but joined the Ravens as an undrafted free agent in April, shortly after the 2020 NFL draft.
Wolf, who played for Tennessee before moving on to Georgia as a graduate transfer in 2019, was also named to Baltimore’s 16-man practice squad after being waived by the team Saturday.
He also joined the team as a free agent in the spring.
