Ravens protect four players on practice squad ahead of Week 6

The Baltimore Ravens will be taking on the Los Angeles Chargers in Week 6 of the 2021 season. Both teams are coming off of incredible Week 5 wins, with Baltimore completing a comeback against the Indianapolis Colts while Los Angeles picked up a crazy victory over the Cleveland Browns.

On Thursday, the Ravens protected four players from their practice squad ahead of their Sunday game with the Chargers in running back Nate McCrary, offensive tackle David Sharpe, cornerback Kevon Seymour and safety Jordan Richards.

McCrary signed with the Ravens’ practice squad after being claimed off of waivers by the Denver Broncos during the final cut down process. Sharpe was a practice squad protection last week as well, and could provide some depth in the event that one or both of Ronnie Stanley and Alejandro Villanueva can’t go on Sunday.

Seymour has been elevated from the practice squad before and has been cornerback depth for a team that is thin at the position. Richards was called up from the practice squad last week and is regarded as a core special teams player.
