Rookie quarterback Emory Jones played in all three preseason games for the Baltimore Ravens.
Jeff Zrebiec of The Athletic reported that the Ravens waived rookie quarterback Emory Jones on Monday. Baltimore and every other NFL team needs to have its roster down to 53 players by 4 p.m. ET on Tuesday.
In Baltimore's preseason opener against the Philadelphia Eagles, Jones came in at the end of the game but was sacked and fumbled on his only snap of the game, which set up Philadelphia to make the game-winning field goal as time expired. In the Ravens' final preseason game against the Green Bay Packers, he attempted and completed just one pass or two yards.
Josh Johnson and Devin Leary are the other two quarterbacks remaining on the roster alongside two-time MVP Lamar Jackson. Johnson will serve as Jackson's backup, but Leary's future is likely on unsteady ground. The fellow undrafted rookie struggled mightily throughout the preseason, including completing 6 of 13 passes for 34 yards and throwing two interceptions in the Ravens' 30-7 loss to Green Bay on Saturday.
