Another Ravens rookie suffers season-ending injury

The Baltimore Ravens have been dealt a bad hand when it comes to rookies suffering injuries thus far through preseason play. Baltimore lost sixth-round pick Bilhal Kone to a knee injury he sustained in the preseason opener against the Indianapolis Colts, and now they have lost a second rookie cornerback.

Robert Longerbeam was placed on injured reserve on Sunday, the team announced.

"Sixth-round rookie Robert Longerbeam (knee) has been placed on injured reserve after missing the Ravens' preseason opener and Saturday's practice," Clifton Brown of Ravens.com writes. "In a corresponding move, the Ravens signed veteran running back Myles Gaskin on Sunday."

The Ravens still have a quality secondary, with Nate Wiggins and Jaire Alexander set to start on the outside and Marlon Humphrey in the slot. Chidobe Awuzie, T.J. Tampa, and Jalyn Armour-Davis will be the team's primary depth.
