On Wednesday, former Alabama running Kenyan Drake signed with the Baltimore Ravens. NFL insider Ian Rapoport was the first to report the news. It comes just over a week after he was released by the Las Vegas Raiders.
Since entering the league in 2016, Drake has played for three different teams with the Ravens being the fourth. Out of college, he was drafted by the Miami Dolphins in the third round. He spent four seasons with the Dolphins organization. He had 333 carries for 1,352 yards and nine rushing touchdowns. Not to mention, he also hauled in 116 receptions for 935 receiving yards and six receiving touchdowns.
In 2020, he was dealt to the Arizona Cardinals for a conditional pick in the draft. Drake went on to spend two seasons in Glendale. There, he had 362 carries for 1,598 rushing yards and 18 rushing touchdowns.
He then joined the Raiders in 2021 and served as a backup for former Alabama running back Josh Jacobs. His role was relatively similar to his tenure in Miami. He had 63 rushes for 254 rushing yards and two rushing touchdowns. After being released, he has since signed with the Ravens.
