The Ravens signed eight players to reserve/future contracts Monday, following the team’s season-ending loss in Pittsburgh.

Baltimore saw its playoff streak snapped on Sunday, and the team will now take steps to prepare for a critical offseason. The Ravens signed eight players to reserve/future contracts Monday, following the team’s season-ending loss in Pittsburgh.

Ravens GM Eric DeCosta retained players who finished the 2025 season on the practice squad:

T Gerad Christian-Lichtenhan

An undrafted free agent last April, Christian-Lichtenhan (6-8, 315) started all 12 games at left tackle for the Beavers, allowing just two sacks and being charged with one penalty on the year in 2024. The giant of a man spent the entire season on the practice squad.

WR Cornelius Johnson

A seventh-round pick of the Los Angeles Chargers last season, Johnson spent most of his rookie year on the Green Bay Packers practice squad but didn’t make the team out of training camp last summer. He had six catches for 50 yards in the preseason and spent the year on the Ravens’ practice squad.

DT David Olajiga

Back in October, the Ravens signed defensive tackle David Olajiga to their practice squad, adding another international player to the organization.

DB Amani Oruwariye

Oruwariye has played in 62 games and made 40 starts over his seven-year career with the Lions, Giants, Jaguars, Cowboys, and Titans. Oruwariye appeared in one game for the Ravens this season. He was elevated from the practice squad for Sunday night’s game against the Steelers, but was inactive.

G Jared Penning

Jared Penning, brother of former Saints first-round pick Trevor Penning, played multiple positions on the offensive line in 48 games at Northern Iowa.

DB Marquise Robinson

Signed as an undrafted free agent last April, Robinson (6-0, 192) played one season with Arkansas (2024), two with South Alabama (2022-23), and one with Southwest Mississippi Community College (2021). In his lone season with Arkansas, he tallied 36 tackles (20 solo), one interception, and eight passes defensed.

OLB Kaimon Rucker

Rucker played five seasons for the Tar Heels and had 14.5 sacks and 23 tackles for loss over his final two seasons. In only eight games last season, he had six sacks and eight tackles for loss, as injuries hampered him.

An intriguing pass rusher, Rucker is 6-foot-1 and 254 pounds with 32 5/8-inch arms. He opted out of all athletic testing except the bench press, totaling 27 reps at 225 pounds.

FB Lucas Scott

A 2025 undrafted free agent, Scott is an Army product signed by the Baltimore Ravens as a fullback/tight end (H-back) and spent the season on the practice squad, providing depth behind Pro Bowl fullback Patrick Ricard, who missed the early part of the season.
