Ravens named as potential fit for USFL star by Bleacher Report

The Baltimore Ravens have explored many different options when it comes to adding talent to their roster over the course of the 2022 offseason. They’ve added stars, depth pieces, as well as players with plenty of potential as they look to bounce back from a rough 2021 season.

When listing out players in the USFL playoffs who deserve a shot in the NFL, Alex Ballentine of Bleacher Report named Baltimore as a potential fit for one of the stars of the league in wide receiver Jonathan Adams from the New Orleans Breakers. Ballentine talked about how Adams could be a good addition for a team looking for a big-bodied, contested catch wideout.

The 6’2″, 210-pound receiver has made the most of his second opportunity…Adams has been the most productive player on a Breakers squad that also features former NFL receiver Taywan Taylor and Ohio State product Johnnie Dixon. He has hauled in 30 receptions for 398 yards and three touchdowns in nine games…Adams could help out any NFL team looking to add a big, contested-catch receiver to its arsenal.

While Adams’ stats through nine games might not necessarily pop off of the page at the NFL level, he is currently fifth in the USFL in receiving yards as well as tied for eighth in receiving touchdowns. He has found a way to bounce back after a rough go of things in the NFL, where he went undrafted, signed with the Detroit Lions, got cut before training camp and then got suspended for six games by the league.

In his four seasons in college at Arkansas State, Adams caught 166 passes for 2,306 yards and 21 touchdowns, including a 79 catch, 1,111 yard, 12 touchdown season during his senior year.
