The Ravens had several changes to their practice squad Tuesday as they prepare to take on the Detroit Lions in Week 3.
Baltimore brought back outside linebacker and Baltimore native Malik Hamm to their practice squad. After earning a spot on the team's initial practice squad, Hamm was released last week when the Ravens signed wide receiver Cornelius Johnson.
A product of Baltimore City College and Lafayette University, Hamm made Baltimore's 53-man roster as an undrafted rookie in 2023. His first two seasons were lost to knee injuries, but he returned this summer and had a strong preseason.
Hamm would add outside linebacker depth if elevated. Veteran Kyle Van Noy left Sunday's game against the Cleveland Browns with a hamstring injury and Head Coach John Harbaugh has not given a specific timetable for Van Noy’s return. David Ojabo, who has been a healthy scratch the first two weeks, could also see action if Van Noy can't play.
Veteran safety and special teams ace J.T. Gray has been placed on the practice squad injured list. A 2021 special teams Pro Bowler, Gray has yet to see action with the Ravens after signing to the practice squad on Sept. 3.
The Ravens lost center Nick Samac from the practice squad after the Carolina Panthers signed him to their 53-man roster on Tuesday. The Panthers lost starting center Austin Corbett and starting guard Robert Hunt to major injuries on Sunday.
