Ravens Sign Shedrick Jackson to Practice Squad

The move supplies short-term depth plus special-teams speed for Baltimore's receiver group before the Week 3 trip to Brazil.

Overview

  • The Ravens officially added wide receiver Shedrick Jackson to their practice squad on Tuesday to bolster depth at the position ahead of their Week 3 game in Brazil.
  • Jackson entered the NFL as an undrafted free agent out of Auburn in 2023 and has spent time on the Cincinnati Bengals and Las Vegas Raiders rosters and practice squads.
  • His most notable trait is straight-line speed, having run a 4.25-second 40-yard dash at Auburn’s pro day, and he made four catches for 56 yards and a touchdown in five games for Las Vegas in 2025.
  • Baltimore views Jackson primarily as a practice resource and special-teams contributor with the possibility of short-term elevations, and he is not expected to immediately change the primary receiver rotation.
  • The signing responds to current receiver availability concerns after Zay Flowers missed time with a hamstring issue and Ja’Kobi Lane was placed on injured reserve, and his roster spot opened after the team elevated Chris Moore.
