Ravens shift former Patriots QB Malik Cunningham to receiver in intriguing OTAs move
NY Post
The Ravens’ experiment with Malik Cunningham at wide receiver will seemingly continue ahead of the 2024 season.
Cunningham, who starred while playing quarterback at Louisville, is now listed as a wide receiver on the team’s roster, and during their OTA session Friday, he made “several grabs” that appeared to validate the switch, according to their team website reporter.
Baltimore has reigning MVP and ex-Louisville star Lamar Jackson, journeyman quarterback Josh Johnson and sixth-round pick Devin Leary as other quarterbacks on their depth chart, and it’d be difficult for the 25-year-old to log snaps under center.
So it gives the Ravens’ offense and offensive coordinator Todd Monken an intriguing option to developed and work into the offense ahead of the 2024 season, when they’ll attempt to recreate the success they produced in 2023 — when they went 13-4 and clinched the AFC’s top seed before falling to the Chiefs in the AFC Championship game.
Cunningham’s NFL career began when he signed as an undrafted quarterback with the Patriots following the 2023 NFL Draft, but he was waived after an underwhelming preseason and signed back to the practice squad.
Then, in a strange twist, he ended up signing a three-year deal with the Patriots and was waived again 10 days later.
