Ravens sign RFAs Tucker, Hill
The Sports Xchange
Restricted free agents Justin Tucker and Will Hill signed their tenders with the Baltimore Ravens on Thursday.
Tucker, the team’s standout kicker, had been tendered at the second-round value, $2.36 million. Hill, a safety, was offered $1.54 million.
The deadline for restricted free agents to sign offer sheets with other teams is Friday. Several teams reportedly had been interested in Tucker — but not willing to surrender the second-round pick.
Tucker, who was an undrafted free agent in 2012, is the most accurate kicker in NFL history at 89.8 percent (97 of 108). That includes seven game-winning field goals and a franchise-record 61-yarder (against the Detroit Lions in 2013).
The Ravens tendered Hill despite a history of league-issued suspensions — 14 games in three seasons — and a bevy of legal issues mostly related to unpaid child support.
Hill sat out six games last season due to a positive test for marijuana and then finished the season as the Ravens’ starting free safety. He is expected to compete for the starting role at strong safety this year.
