The Ravens have included an undrafted rookie on their initial 53-man roster in 20 of the last 21 years, with 17 players competing to continue that trend this year. Linebacker Jay Higgins, an All-American from Iowa in 2024, and defensive tackle Jayson Jones, who played at Auburn, are among the notable undrafted hopefuls. Other new additions include offensive lineman Jared Penning, wide receivers Jahmal Banks and Xavier Guillory, and several others from various colleges, all aiming to secure a spot on the roster.
