Tom Pelissero of NFL Media reports that the Ravens are expected to use a second-round restricted tender on DT Michael Pierce.
The second-round tender will cost them $3.095 million for the 2019 season and ensure that they receive a second-round pick for him if they decline to match an offer he receives from another team.
Pierce, 26, wound up signing on with the Ravens as an undrafted free agent out of Samford. He played out the final year of his three-year rookie contract and is in line to be a restricted free agent this offseason.
In 2018, Pierce appeared in 14 games for the Ravens and recorded 32 tackles, no sacks, a fumble recovery and a pass defense.
