The Baltimore Ravens officially have no players on the reserve/COVID-19 list after taking UDFA safety Nigel Warrior off it and moving him to the active roster. The move comes as Baltimore waived fellow UDFA tight end Jacob Breeland with a non-football injury designation, according to the team’s Twitter account.
Warrior initially entered the reserve/COVID-19 list at the beginning of training camp. Either he personally tested positive for the virus or he had been in close proximity to someone who had, causing the need to quarantine. However, with two negative tests in a row, Warrior was able to rejoin the rest of the team on the active roster. Warrior will complete for one of the reserve safety spots along with Geno Stone, Baltimore’s seventh-round pick in the 2020 NFL Draft.
Breeland had been rehabilitating this offseason after tearing his ACL with the Oregon Ducks last year. Though it was hoped Breeland would be able to compete for the third tight end job in training camp, it was expected he was going to be done for the year. Breeland being waived doesn’t necessarily mean his time with the Ravens has come to an end, however. If he clears waivers, Breeland could be put on Baltimore’s injured reserve, allowing the team to stash him until 2021.
