The Baltimore Ravens have officially signed former Cyclone linebacker Jake Hummel to a one-year contract, the team announced Thursday.
The Dowling Catholic graduate has been a special teams standout since joining the NFL’s Los Angeles Rams in 2022.
While the Rams did not re-sign Hummel, who collected 31 tackles in his career as well as a blocked punt returned for a touchdown, the Ravens hopped on the opportunity.
