Jadeveon Clowney agrees to join Ravens to help Baltimore's pass rush, AP source says

Defensive end Jadeveon Clowney has agreed to a contract with the Baltimore Ravens, according to a person with knowledge of the agreement.

The person spoke on condition of anonymity Friday because the deal hadn't been announced.

It's another late addition to a Baltimore defense that is dealing with injuries in the secondary and could also use some pass rushing help. Clowney can certainly provide the latter. He has 43 sacks in nine seasons since entering the NFL as the No. 1 pick in the 2014 draft.

Clowney had 11 sacks over the past two seasons with the Cleveland Browns.

Baltimore moved on from veteran pass rushers Calais Campbell and Justin Houston this offseason. Odafe Oweh and David Ojabo have potential in that department, but neither has Clowney's experience or track record.
