Jaire Alexander Injury: Joins forces with Ravens

Baltimore signed Alexander (knee) to a contract Wednesday.

Alexander, who was released by the Packers just over one week ago, now finds a new home with an AFC powerhouse. Assuming full health, Alexander figures to replace Chidobe Awuzie (ankle), who suffered an injury at practice in early June, as a starting boundary cornerback alongside 2024 first-round pick Nate Wiggins. Per Jordan Schultz of Fox Sports, Alexander's deal is a one-year, $6 million contract, a low enough figure to indicate that teams around the league still do have significant concerns about his ability to remain on the field for a full 17-game season. The 28-year-old suited up for only seven regular-season games in each of his last two seasons with Green Bay. Alexander currently is recovering from arthroscopic right knee surgery undergone in early January.
