Ravens Add LB Bynes from Practice Squad

The Ravens have signed rookie linebacker Josh Bynes to the active roster from their practice squad. The move gives the team an insurance policy at linebacker, where Jameel McClain (pictured) and Brendon Ayanbadejo are both listed as questionable for tomorrow's divisional playoff game against Houston. McClain is still recovering from a sprained knee, while Ayanbadejo is nursing a thigh injury.

Bynes, an undrafted rookie out of Auburn, had been on the practice squad since being cut out of training camp. He was brought up to the active roster for the Thanksgiving Day game against San Francisco, and was then cut and re-signed to the practice squad, where he has been ever since.

The team released offensive tackle D.J. Jones to make room for Bynes. Jones was previously signed off of the practice squad on December 27th to provide depth on the offensive line.
