The Baltimore Ravens announced Saturday that they’ve released veteran LB Paul Worrilow after he made the decision to retire from the NFL a day after signing with the team.
“I spoke to him last night and he was great. He was all ready and excited to go. So I was surprised,” Head Coach John Harbaugh said of Worrilow’s decision to retire.
Worrilow, 29, wound up signing on with the Falcons as an undrafted free agent out of Delaware back in 2013. He returned to the Falcons on a one-year, $2.553 million restricted tender back in March of 2016.
Worrilow played one season for the Lions before the Eagles signed him to a one-year contract last year. Unfortunately, he suffered a season-ending torn ACL. He returned to Philadelphia this offseason, but was just recently released.
The Ravens signed Worrilow to a contract on Friday.
In 2017, Worrilow appeared in 13 games for the Lions and recorded 30 total tackles, one fumble recovery, and one pass defense.
