The Baltimore Ravens announced Saturday that they’ve activated RB Rasheen Ali from injured reserve and elevated EDGE Yannick Ngakoue to their active roster ahead of their Week 6 game against the Commanders.
Ngakoue, 29, is a former third-round pick of the Jaguars back in 2016 out of Maryland. He played out the final year of his four-year, $3.48 million contract before the Jaguars used the franchise tag on him.
However, Ngakoue refused to play for the Jaguars in a contract dispute and they later traded him to the Vikings. He lasted just a few months in Minnesota before he was traded to the Ravens that same season.
As an unrestricted free agent in 2021, Ngakoue signed a two-year, $26 million deal with the Raiders. He was traded to the Colts after one year in exchange for CB Rock Ya-Sin.
Ngakoue signed a one-year, $10.5 million deal with Chicago last August. He returned to the Ravens a few weeks ago.
In 2023, Ngakoue appeared in 13 games and recorded 22 tackles, four sacks and six tackles for loss.
