Brandon Carr Fantasy Stats

The Baltimore Ravens picked up the option on cornerback Brandon Carr for 2018. The Ravens have questions in the secondary with cornerback Jimmy Smith returning from a torn Achilles and general manager Ozzie Newsome "stressed" Baltimore needs six quality cornerbacks on the depth chart, so it is not a surprise that they brought Carr back. Baltimore relied on its defense at times in 2017, and Carr's return helps the odds of the unit continuing to be a strength for both the team and fantasy managers.

Baltimore Ravens cornerback Brandon Carr was considered to be a salary cap cut, but The Baltimore Sun's Jeff Zrebiec writes it "seems unlikely" the Ravens cut Carr. Baltimore can save $4 million against the cap by cutting ties with Carr, money they could use to revamp the offense. The Ravens have questions in the secondary with cornerback Jimmy Smith returning from a torn Achilles, however, and general manager Ozzie Newsome "stressed" Baltimore needs six quality cornerbacks on the depth chart. At this point, it looks likely Carr is back.
