Kyle Arrington Released by Ravens After 2 Seasons with Team

Timothy Rapp
Jun 5, 2017

The Baltimore Ravens released cornerback Kyle Arrington with theย failed physical designation on Monday, according to Jeff Zrebiec of the Baltimore Sun.

Arrington, 30, signed with the Ravens before the 2015 season, registering 28 tackles and a forced fumble in 15 games. He took a pay cut to stay with the team last offseason and was ultimately placed onย season-ending injured reserve last August after suffering a concussion.

In corresponding moves, the Ravens signedย Brandon Boykin and Al-Hajj Shabazz on Monday, perย Garrett Downingย ofย BaltimoreRavens.com. That concluded a week of turnover at the position, afterย slot cornerย Tavon Youngย tore his ACL last week.

Arrington's move frees up $2.1 million in cap space for the Ravens, perย Callie Caplan and Zrebiecย of theย Baltimore Sun.

The Ravens have completely overhauled their secondary this offseason. Gone areย Shareece Wright, Kendrick Lewis,ย Matt Elam, Chris Lewis-Harris and Jerraud Powers. They were replaced by free-agent signeesย Brandon Carr and Tony Jefferson, while the team also drafted Marlon Humphrey.

Carr is expected to start next to Jimmy Smith at cornerback, with Humphrey the frontrunner to step into the slot role and Boykin also capable of playing inside.
