Ravens Insider: Ravens shuffle banged-up secondary ahead of Sunday’s game vs. Browns

The Ravens’ banged-up secondary is getting some reinforcements.

On Saturday, Baltimore activated cornerback Jalyn Armour-Davis from injured reserve and elevated undrafted rookie cornerback Ryan “Bump” Cooper Jr. from the practice squad for Sunday’s game against the host Cleveland Browns.

The Ravens (5-2) also placed rookie cornerback T.J. Tampa (ankle) on injured reserve, meaning the fourth-round draft pick will miss at least four games. Rookie cornerback Nate Wiggins (shoulder/illness) did not travel with the team to Cleveland, but his playing status for Sunday remains questionable.

Cornerback Marlon Humphrey (knee), who leads the team with four interceptions, is doubtful to play Sunday after being injured in Monday night’s win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. But Arthur Maulet will make his season debut, joining Brandon Stephens, Ar’Darius Washington, Armour-Davis and Cooper as healthy cornerbacks against a Browns offense now led by quarterback Jameis Winston and new play-caller Ken Dorsey. The Ravens’ pass defense is the worst in the NFL, allowing 287.1 yards per game.

Last season, Maulet recorded 37 tackles, a pair of sacks and an interception in 14 games. The 31-year-old had an impressive training camp but tweaked his hamstring in his first practice back from arthroscopic knee surgery and missed seven games.

Armour-Davis, who started the season opener in Kansas City, has not played since a Week 3 win over the Dallas Cowboys because of a hamstring injury. The 2022 fourth-round pick has played just 15 snaps on defense this season, lining up mostly on special teams.

Wiggins, a first-round pick, has started three games, recording 13 tackles, seven pass breakups and a forced fumble.
