Ravens add potential pass rush help, signing defensive end Carl Lawson to their practice squad
OWINGS MILLS, Md. — The Baltimore Ravens have signed defensive end Carl Lawson to their practice squad.
Lawson had five sacks in 15 games for the Dallas Cowboys last season, and now the 30-year-old joins a Baltimore team that needs help with its pass rush. The Ravens lost defensive lineman Nnamdi Madubuike to a season-ending neck issue, and they traded edge rusher Odafe Oweh for secondary help.
Baltimore hosts Chicago on Sunday, then plays at Miami on Thursday night. It's not clear how quickly Lawson will be able to get up to speed.
Baltimore released tight end Zaire Mitchell-Paden.
