Ravens lose promising practice squad TE to Cardinals

The Ravens lost a promising practice squad tight end to the Arizona Cardinals

The Baltimore Ravens have had many promising players walk through their doors throughout history. They have been known to have one of the better player development departments in the NFL, which has led to a steady diet of talent contributing on the field for the club.

One player with plenty of potential for Baltimore was undrafted rookie tight end Travis Vokolek. The University of Nebraska product was one of the stars of the Ravens’ 2023 preseason, but will now have an opportunity to play somewhere else after the Arizona Cardinals signed the rookie from the team’s practice squad.

Vokolek had spent the entire season on Baltimore’s practice squad, yet to log an NFL snap.

He’ll join Arizona’s active roster with the team moving Geoff Swaim (calf) to injured reserve Wednesday.

Vokolek isn’t likely to see many offensive opportunities, given Trey McBride’s recent emergence as one of the league’s top pass-catching tight ends.
