On the same day veteran defensive end Chris Canty was released, the Ravens reportedly re-signed defensive tackle Christo Bilukidi to a two-year contract.
According to The Sun, Baltimore will retain the restricted free agent, who appeared in four games for the Ravens after being claimed off waivers from the Cincinnati Bengals in September. Bilukidi finished the season on injured reserve after suffering an ankle injury in mid-October.
The 25-year-old was originally a sixth-round pick by the Oakland Raiders in the 2012 draft. At 6-foot-5 and 320 pounds, the Georgia State product played in 13 games in 2012 and appeared in seven contests in 2013 while splitting time between the Raiders and the Bengals.
Bilukidi has collected 16 tackles, one sack, and one pass breakup in 24 career games in four NFL seasons.
