The Baltimore Ravens took notice when DeSean Jackson expressed a desire in returning to the field.
According to Jackson's agent, Jackson, a free agent who last played in 2021 for the Las Vegas Raiders, is signing with the Ravens after a tryout on Tuesday. On Wednesday, the club declared that Jackson had been added to the practice squad.
On the I AM ATHLETE podcast live tour, the seasoned speedster recently said that he was still active and open to making a return. The Philadelphia Eagles, Green Bay Packers, and Baltimore Ravens were the three clubs he named as being of interest.

The Ravens have always struggled with wide receiver depth, and lately, things have grown much worse as Rashod Bateman has missed time with a groin ailment.
As a big-play specialist throughout the course of his 14-year career, Jackson, 35, could possibly provide another element to the Baltimore offense as he attempts to establish a Jackson-Jackson bond with quarterback Lamar Jackson.
This is going to be a good move for the Ravens!
