The Baltimore Ravens cut their roster down to 53 players on Tuesday at the league’s 4pm EST deadline. There were many surprises in who the Ravens decided to waive, with one of them being safety Tony Jefferson. Another player let go by the team was rookie outside linebacker Chuck Wiley.
Less than 24 hours later, both Jefferson and Wiley have reportedly found a new NFL team. Jeff Zrebiec of The Athletic reported that both Jefferson and Wiley will join the New York Giants practice squad, reuniting with former Baltimore defensive coordinator Don Martindale.
OLB Chuck Wiley, who had a nice preseason for the Ravens, will be signing with New York Giants practice squad.

The Ravens will face off against the Giants in Week 6 of the 2022 season in the Meadowlands. It remains to be seen if both Wiley and Jefferson would be on the active roster or called up from the practice squad for the game, but both players will head to New York for their next football chapter.
