The Ravens have agreed to a one-year contract with wide receiver Michael Campanaro.
The 2014 seventh-round pick and River Hill grad was a restricted free agent and had received an original-round tender worth $1.79 million last month. However, his new agreement lowers his base salary and cap number for the 2017 season and is worth a maximum of $2 million, according to The Sun.
Campanaro has been plagued by injuries throughout his career, appearing in just 11 games over three seasons. However, he became Baltimore’s primary punt returner after the release of veteran Devin Hester last December and also carried the ball three times for 72 yards in three games.
With Steve Smith having retired and Kamar Aiken now with Indianapolis, the 5-foot-9 Campanaro could be in line for a bigger role on offense in 2017. He has 12 receptions for 137 yards and a touchdown in his NFL career.
In other wide receiver news, former Raven Anquan Boldin reconfirmed at his charity golf event in Florida that he intends to play in 2017 and will wait to sign with a team until closer to training camp. Asked about a possible reunion with Boldin last month, head coach John Harbaugh expressed interest in having him back, but the Ravens would likely prefer to wait to sign any other unrestricted free agents until next month when the compensatory pick formula is no longer impacted.
Boldin’s 2016 team, the Detroit Lions, have also expressed interest in re-signing him.
