Ravens Sign Desmond King to Strengthen Struggling Secondary
The Baltimore Ravens have added former All-Pro cornerback Desmond King to their practice squad as part of ongoing efforts to improve their pass defense.
- Desmond King, a former All-Pro cornerback, has joined the Ravens' practice squad after being released by the Houston Texans.
- King's addition follows the recent acquisition of Tre'Davious White, as Baltimore seeks to address its league-worst pass defense.
- The Ravens' secondary has been plagued by injuries and underperformance, prompting changes in both the safety and cornerback positions.
- King is expected to provide depth at nickel cornerback, a position weakened by Arthur Maulet's recent calf injury.
- In addition to his defensive skills, King brings valuable experience as a punt returner, which could benefit the Ravens' special teams.
