Ravens updated 53-man roster vs. Colts: News and notes for Week 3

We’re just hours away from the Ravens Week 3 matchup against the Colts, and the roster will look slightly different after a slew of Saturday afternoon moves.

Baltimore ruled out seven players for the game at M&T Bank Stadium, and then the team released veteran backup Josh Johnson to open a spot.

Johnson had served as the Ravens’ No. 2 quarterback behind Lamar Jackson the first two weeks, but Tyler Huntley will be the backup Sunday.

The Ravens then signed Jeremiah Moon to the 53-man roster, with Odafe Oweh dealing with an ankle injury.

With Justice Hill out with a foot injury, the Ravens elevated running backs Melvin Gordon III and Kenyan Drake from the practice squad to have three running backs ready for Sunday’s game.

With kickoff fast approaching, here’s an updated Ravens’ 53-man roster for Week 3.
