vmax Posted September 6, 2014 Share Posted September 6, 2014 Maybe they are not too worried about the secondary... The Baltimore Ravens promoted running back Fitz Toussaint from their practice squad after releasing cornerback Derek Cox.Toussaint is the third undrafted rookie on the Ravens' season-opening 53-man roster, joining linebacker Zachary Orr and offensive tackle James Hurst.Touissant flashed his explosiveness in the preseason finale with several big runs. Toussaint ran for 103 yards at New Orleans, averaging 6.1 yards per carry.The Ravens have four tailbacks on their roster with Bernard Pierce, Lorenzo Taliaferro, Justin Forsett and Toussaint. Pierce is expected to replace suspended Ray Rice as the the Ravens' starting running back for the first two games of the season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TBird Posted September 7, 2014 Author Share Posted September 7, 2014 Exactly, plus they can always re-sign him in 2 weeks when Rice comes back and send Toussaint back to PS. I'm glad they promoted him. He's a nice backup and you don't know if Pierce will godown - AGAIN! Toussaint can play special teams too so that's another plus.

tsylvester Posted September 23, 2014 Share Posted September 23, 2014 Time to bring back Cox. I don't ever want to see Brown again, ever. He is trying out with the Saints, who wanted him before last season, but he took bigger bucks to go west... No one wants him and plenty of teams need a cornerback.
