US EditionRavens Sign Safety Chauncey Gardner-Johnson to Practice Squad
The Ravens added veteran safety C.J. Gardner-Johnson to address injuries and poor pass defense, allowing 177 points in five games, officials said.
- On Tuesday, the Baltimore Ravens signed safety C.J. Gardner-Johnson to their practice squad, agent Kevin Conner told ESPN's Adam Schefter.
- With injuries leaving the secondary depleted, Baltimore entered the week 1-4 and had allowed 177 points through five games.
- Gardner-Johnson, who was cut by Houston Texans after three games amid reported friction, has 18 interceptions, 319 tackles, 51 deflected passes, and won a Super Bowl with Philadelphia Eagles.
- If he stabilizes the back end, All-Pro safety Kyle Hamilton could see more time in the slot, while Schefter notes Houston Texans still guarantee Gardner-Johnson's 2025 salary and the Ravens released Josh Tupou.
- The move arrives as an opportunity to improve the defense after a 44-10 Week 5 loss, with Baltimore Ravens' defense allowing 41, 17, 38, 37 and 44 points in five games.
