Ravens agree to terms with safety Stewart
The Baltimore Ravens have agreed to terms with safety Darian Stewart to a one-year deal. Stewart was an undrafted free agent in 2010 and has seen action with the St. Louis Rams.
Stewart has starting experience and will add depth to the Ravens secondary. The Ravens need to find a starting free safety and Stewart could fill that roll but he has played mostly at strong safety. I think the Ravens will try to fill the free safety position in the NFL draft.
Here is the Ravens press release on Stewart.
