Jaire Alexander has found his new home in the NFL. After recently being released by the Green Bay Packers, the veteran cornerback inked a deal with the Baltimore Ravens, the team announced Wednesday. Specifically, it’s a one-year deal worth up to $6 million, according to NFL Media. The base of the deal is worth $4 million, and Alexander has a chance to earn $2 million more through incentives.
When healthy, Alexander is a difference-maker in the secondary. However, that inability to stay on the field is what has hindered his career as of late and ultimately proved to be the catalyst for his departure from Green Bay. Because of injury, Alexander has played just seven games in each of the last two regular seasons for the Packers. He missed the final seven games of the 2024 campaign, last appearing in the club’s Week 11 matchup against the Chicago Bears.
That said, this move to Baltimore could be the reset that Alexander needs to get his career back on track and be on the field on a more consistent basis. Again, Alexander has proven to be an All-Pro-caliber player during his career. Back in 2022, when he played 16 games, he tallied 14 pass breakups and a career-high five interceptions en route to Pro Bowl and second-team All-Pro nominations. Even when he was on the field for his seven games played last season, he recorded seven pass breakups and two interceptions, so the talent is there.
