Ravens Cut Former Draft Pick After Preseason

The Baltimore Ravens have made a roster cut, releasing wide receiver Chris Moore, a former fourth-round draft pick from the 2016 NFL Draft. Moore played five seasons with the Ravens before spending time with other teams, including the Houston Texans, Tennessee Titans, Arizona Cardinals, and Washington Commanders. Over his 10-year career, he recorded 149 receptions for 1,917 yards and 9 touchdowns. His most productive season was in 2022 with the Texans, where he caught 48 passes for 548 yards and two touchdowns.

Moore had a notable moment in the Ravens' recent 41-3 preseason win against the Commanders, catching a touchdown pass that was initially ruled incomplete but overturned after a coach's challenge. He concluded the preseason with 4 catches for 66 yards and a touchdown. Despite his contributions, the emergence of other receivers like LaJohntay Wester made his roster spot uncertain.

The Ravens intend to bring Moore back to their practice squad if he clears waivers over the next 24 hours. This move is considered tough by the team, as they view a veteran like Moore on the practice squad as a valuable asset. Fans will await the outcome of the waiver process to see if he remains with the team in a practice squad capacity.
