Per Roster page of Baltimore Ravens (Source: Baltimore Ravens Roster), Verity's currently on their Practice Squad...

Time to go'a raidin'?







Saints probably prefer a less demanding player and being able to flex 'em off the practice squad...

However, this could be a mistake as opposition could poach off our practice squad right before game day to disrupt us...

That means he cleared waivers before going to the PS. Hello, SP... where are you?

What's the big deal with Verity? Outside of an elite few, kickers are fairly interchangeable. If he was truly anything special he wouldn't have cleared waivers, would he?

I believe CSP is rolling with Rosas until Will can return …

Unless Rosas stinks it up over the next few weeks.

Prolly right. Still makes you wonder when we coulda had Verity for likely cheaper than Rosas. It's kinda nice to have a kicker farm team to depend on in Baltimore. :D

Although you always want the best kicker you can get, it wouldn’t be good to get a guy who starts off having a pro-bowl type season and then end up with a kicker controversy when Lutz returns.

Hmmm....I don't think any available kicker is better than Lutz. He is a game changer.

If Rosas misses a game winning FG or crucial PAT, SP will have his bags packed and tooling up I-59 in a blink of an eye.
