Beau Brade grew up a Ravens fan. Now, the former River Hill and Maryland standout will get to live out a childhood dream and play for them this season.

The rookie safety was among those to be announced as part of Baltimore’s initial roster for the 2024 season Tuesday, the deadline for NFL teams to trim their rosters to 53 players. The Ravens were the last of the league’s 32 teams to announce their group.

Brade was the lone undrafted free agent to make the team, and his addition provides depth to what is a talented secondary but one that has seen its share of injuries. Already, the Ravens are without cornerbacks Arthur Maulet (knee), who has bene designated to return, while rookie fourth-round cornerback T.J. Tampa only recently returned from double sports hernia surgery. All-Pro safety Kyle Hamilton and free safety Marcus Williams also missed time last season because of injury.

The third River Hill graduate to play in the NFL, along with wide receiver Michael Campanaro and cornerback Kevin Johnson, Brade making the team was not entirely surprising, particularly after flashing throughout the preseason. Over the course of three games, he played 153 snaps, including 38 on special teams, and finished with 16 tackles and allowed two catches on seven targets.

Meanwhile, there was little in the way of surprise. In all, the Ravens have 10 offensive linemen and 11 defensive backs, as expected. They also waived sixth-round rookie quarterback Devin Leary after a poor preseason, while fifth-round rookie running back Rasheen Ali and seventh-round safety Sanoussi Kane both made the team, which begins the regular season Sept. 5 in Kansas City against the two-time defending Super Bowl champion Chiefs.
