Tony Jefferson News
The New York Giants signed veteran free-agent defensive back Tony Jefferson to their practice squad, along with offensive lineman Wyatt Davis, defensive end Henry Mondeaux and linebacker Charles Wiley. Jefferson didn't survive roster cuts last Tuesday with the Baltimore Ravens, making him a free agent. The 30-year-old served as secondary depth for the Ravens and San Francisco 49ers last year and only played in six games, finishing with 18 tackles (nine solo) and one sack. Jefferson has eight years of NFL experience (four with the Arizona Cardinals) and should provide the Giants with some valuable depth in 2022.
The Baltimore Ravens plan to release safety Tony Jefferson, according to a source. The Ravens drafted Kyle Hamilton in the first round this offseason and also signed former New Orleans Saints standout Marcus Williams, leaving less opportunity for Jefferson, who had a strong preseason with nine tackles in one half in the finale last Saturday against the Washington Commanders. The 30-year-old veteran safety played in only six combined games with the Ravens and San Francisco 49ers last year, recording 18 tackles (nine solo), one sack and one pass defensed. Jefferson will be looking to latch on with another team as veteran defensive back depth before Week 1 arrives.
The Baltimore Ravens re-signed safety Tony Jefferson to an undisclosed deal on Thursday. The 30-year-old initially signed to the team's practice squad on Dec. 133 an was elevated to the active roster with Baltimore's secondary wiped out by injuries. Jefferson led the team with 10 tackles in Week 16 against the Cincinnati Bengals and had 18 tackles in four games to close out the season. The veteran defensive back was a defensive leader for the Ravens from 2017-19 before he tore his ACL in Week 5 in 2019. He was released that offseason and missed all of 2020. Jefferson appeared in two games with the San Francisco 49ers last year before he was released.
