Ravens release WR Chris Moore with rookie Ja’Kobi Lane nearing return

The Baltimore Ravens released veteran wide receiver Chris Moore on Tuesday, likely clearing a 53-man roster spot for rookie wide receiver Ja’Kobi Lane. Lane, a third-round draft pick who suffered a fractured wrist in Week 1, is eligible to return to practice on Wednesday. Head coach Jesse Minter confirmed that the rookie has remained in good physical conditioning during his rehabilitation.

Moore is expected to re-sign with the practice squad after the Ravens released wide receiver Xavier Guillory to make room. The article notes that Lane's 6-foot-4 frame could provide a boost to Baltimore's offense, particularly given injuries and depth issues in the tight end room following Durham Smythe's season-ending torn Achilles.
