The Baltimore Ravens didn’t see any of their 2022 free agents change teams over the first day of free agency. However, as the days have gone by there have been a few that have departed from the organization for new opportunities.
On Wednesday night, it was announced by cornerback Anthony Averett’s agency that he had signed a one-year deal with the Las Vegas Raiders. The move comes after Averett posted a cryptic tweet on Twitter. The details of the contract were later released, with the cornerback reportedly set to make $4.5 million.
