The Ravens are short on tight ends at the moment and they may try to remedy that by signing a former member of the Cardinals.
Aaron Wilson of the Baltimore Sun reports that the Ravens and Rob Housler have mutual interest in working together during the 2015 season. That mutual interest hasn’t led to mutual agreement on a price for Housler’s services, though Wilson reports that the two sides continue to talk in hopes of finding a common ground.
Housler caught 84 passes for the Cardinals across the 2012 and 2013 seasons, but saw his role in the offense drop significantly last season. Housler caught just nine balls for 129 yards as Arizona’s passing game looked in other directions.
Signing with Baltimore could offer Housler a chance to rebound as the Ravens need to replace Owen Daniels’s 48 catches from last season with the veteran following Gary Kubiak to Denver. Crockett Gilmore returns from last year’s team, although he’s been more of a blocker thus far in his career.
Housler visited Atlanta earlier in the offseason before the Falcons signed Jacob Tamme and Tony Moeaki.
