“Get him, Eric,” Jackson said. “I love all our corners, don’t misunderstand me. But leave him, Eric.”
Alexander increases the corner of a crew that includes All-Pro Marlon Humphrey, 2024 first player Nate Wiggins and elder Chidobe Awuzie, in which the club put this season. The supplement strengthens the group with a proven, sticky protective back. If he remains healthy, Alexander and Wiggins will make a very good trio in the slot.
Packers released Alexander last week after seven seasons. The trip came after many months of uncertainty about the position of the former Pro Bowl corner at the company.
The talent has never been the question with Alexander. It is a supply that has been his Bugaboo for the past season. Over the past two campaigns, CB has played in only 14 games in the usual season due to damage from injury, including in the groin, back, shoulder and knee. In 2024, he missed the last eight games of Packers, including their losses on the wild card for Eagles.
Since Packers couldn’t count on him a week and week out, they didn’t want to pay $ 16.5 million in basic salary. Sides could not approve an acceptable pay cut.
Now Alexander moves to Baltimore to help strengthen the defense. That Ravens has dropped him for a $ 6 million maximum steal, even if he plays half the games.
Ravens brings this offseason, which includes a supplement in the first round of Malaki Starks, has not only injected a high school play, but have also released Dy-It-Al all Dynamo Kyle Hamilton to be a mobile chess work this season, where he is the most precious.
Even though Alexander does not remain healthy for the season, this is a great deal for Ravens and one that could pay himself on a large scale if he is finally on the field.
