The Ravens signed Cunningham to their practice squad Wednesday, Brian Wacker of The Baltimore Sun reports. The former quarterback turned wide receiver had an impressive offseason in Baltimore, so it's no surprise that he's been brought back to the team's practice squad after failing to make the initial 53-man roster. Cunningham appeared in two regular-season games last season with the Ravens and Patriots, recording no stats while playing just 10 total snaps.

The Ravens signed Cunningham to their practice squad Wednesday, Brian Wacker of The Baltimore Sun reports. The former quarterback turned wide receiver had an impressive offseason in Baltimore, so it's no surprise that he's been brought back to the team's practice squad after failing to make the initial 53-man roster. Cunningham appeared in two regular-season games last season with the Ravens and Patriots, recording no stats while playing just 10 total snaps.
Cunningham was waived by the Ravens on Tuesday, Clifton Brown of the team's official site reports. Cunningham made the switch from quarterback to wideout in the offseason but was unable to land a spot on the Ravens' depth chart at his new position. The former quarterback initially signed with Baltimore last December off the New England practice squad.
Cunningham has been one of Baltimore's standouts throughout OTAs and minicamp, Jamison Hensley of ESPN reports. Cunningham made the switch to wideout this spring, with coach John Harbaugh calling him "kind of a natural at the position." Harbaugh also noted that because of Cunningham's experience at quarterback, he has a good understanding of the passing game from that perspective. The second-year pro will compete for a depth role in a relatively thin Ravens wide receiver room, as well as potentially contribute in the return game.
Baltimore officially listed Cunningham as a wide receiver during OTAs, Kevin Patra of NFL.com reports. Cunningham has gotten reps at wide receiver since the Ravens brought him on board back in December, and his transition to the new position (from quarterback) is now officially complete. He's part of a relatively thin wide receiver room, so he could very well find his way onto Baltimore's final 2024 roster if he impresses during training camp.
