DEC 18 MELVIN GORDON SET TO SUB FOR MITCHELL

The Melvin Gordon transaction rollercoaster is about to hit another loop.

Per Ari Meirov of The 33rd Team, Gordon is “expected” to be re-added to the Baltimore Ravens’ roster after Keaton Mitchell endured a season-ending injury in Sunday’s 23-7 win over Jacksonville.

Gordon, 30, has been stationed in the Ravens’ system since training camp and previously appeared in two games earlier this regular season. He amassed 99 yards from scrimmage in those appearances and five of his 16 carries resulted in first downs.

DEC 15 TYLER HUNTLEY WELCOMES 1ST CHILD 

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Tyler Huntley made one of the best roster adjustments on Thursday, as he welcomed his first child, a boy named Tyler Jr. Weighing in at eight pounds and 12 ounces, Tyler Jr.’s arrival caused his father to miss practice on Thursday, though he was back in tow during Friday’s prep.

“It’s a life-changing moment,” Huntley said, per Ryan Mink of the Ravens’ official site. “It’s just love to see life being brought into this world.”

Huntley, 25, is in the midst of his fourth season in Baltimore, serving as a recurring backup to Lamar Jackson. The Utah alum has appeared in three games this season, throwing eight passes including one that went for a touchdown.

DEC 14 PAST AND PRESENT RAVENS PART OF ROONEY AWARD NOMINEES

There’s no shortage of Baltimore Ravens representation on the list of finalists for the Art Rooney Sportsmanship Award: current guard Kevin Zeitler is one of the eight finalists alongside former Charm City fullback Kyle Juszczyk and linebacker C.J. Mosley, who respectively rep the San Francisco 49ers and New York Jets.

The award, which was introduced in 2014, will be one of the many titles bestowed at the upcoming NFL Honors, which will held on Feb. 8 in the lead-up to Super Bowl LVIII. Other nominees include Budda Baker (Arizona), Maxx Crosby (Las Vegas), Khalil Mack (LA Chargers), Dak Prescott (Dallas), and Bobby Wagner (Seattle).

Baltimore will, ironically enough, look to take home the sportsmanship title named after the founder of the Pittsburgh Steelers for the second consecutive season: former defensive lineman Calais Campbell, currently of Atlanta, was last year’s winner in his third and final season in purple.

DEC 12 ‘LOUISVILLE REUNION’ 

According to a report from Adam Schefter, the Baltimore Ravens have strengthened their quarterback depth by adding rookie signal-caller Malik Cunningham from the New England Patriots practice squad.

Which will reunite him with fellow former Louisville and current Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson, who was on the same team back in 2017 as a member of the Cardinals.
