The Baltimore Ravens signed wide receiver DeSean Jackson to their practice squad on Tuesday.

The expectation is for the 35-year-old Jackson to get elevated on game day. Jackson averaged 22.7 yards per catch last year, which was the highest of his 14-year career.

Stretching the field has been a challenge for Lamar Jackson, who has completed just 21% of his passes that have traveled at least 20 yards. It's the second worst in the league behind the Giants.

The wide receiver group is one of the most inexperienced in the league. There are only two Baltimore wide receiver with double-digit catches.

In Sunday's 24-20 loss to the Giants, the Ravens' wide receiver totaled five catches for 45 yards, with one of them being a touchdown. Harbaugh said that Bateman was close to coming back.

Over the past six years, the Ravens have signed at least one 30- or older wide receiver every year. He's joined by Mike Wallace, Michael Crabtree, and a few others.

Jackson is worried about being able to last a long time. He played 16 games with the Los Angeles Rams and Las Vegas Raiders last season, but missed a lot of time due to injuries.

Jackson is 36th on the all-time receiving list. He has caught over 600 passes and scored over fifty touchdown passes.
