Former UTM football standout Jaylon Moore has claimed a role on spot on the Baltimore Ravens practice squad, as announced by the organization.
Moore previously signed an undrafted free agent contract with the Ravens and produced against the league’s elite through training camp for the defending two-time defending AFC North champions. He is one of 16 players to be signed to the practice squad outside of the team’s 53-player active roster. As a member of the practice squad, two players per week can be promoted to the active roster.
Moore, a 5-11, 191-pound wide receiver from Memphis, spent the past four seasons at UTM where he was a preseason all-conference pick by both The CFB Network and Phil Steele in 2019. Despite having his season interrupted by injury, he accumulated 16 receptions for 292 yards and five touchdowns as a senior. His best game came against nationally-ranked Austin Peay where he returned from injury to tally five receptions for 87 yards and three touchdowns.
During his tenure at UTM, Moore tallied 92 receptions for 1,492 yards while his 18 career touchdowns rank third in program history. Additionally, he averaged 16.2 yards per reception. His breakout campaign came during his junior season in which he tallied 52 receptions for 799 yards and eight touchdowns. In addition to his football career, he was also a member of the UTM track and field program as a sprinter.
