Ravens Claim TE Ryan Taylor Off Waivers From Packers

The Baltimore Ravens have claimed TE Ryan Taylor off of waivers from the Green Bay Packers, according to Aaron Wilson.

• The Ravens waived TE Phillip Supernaw to make room for him.
• Baltimore also signed DE Steven Means to their practice squad.

The Packers somewhat surprisingly placed Taylor on waivers Monday as they added a receiver to their active roster.

Taylor, 26, is a former seventh-round pick of the Packers back in 2011 out of North Carolina. He was entering the final year of his rookie contract.

Over the course of his four years with the Packers, Taylor has appeared in 50 games and caught eight passes for 45 yards receiving and a touchdown. He has been a regular contributor to the Packers’ the special-teams unit since entering the NFL.
