The Ravens waived Cleveland on Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
Cleveland missed the Ravens' last three games while serving a suspension for violating the NFL's Substances of Abuse Policy, and while that suspension was lifted Monday, he will not be on the Ravens' active roster heading into Sunday's regular-season finale against the Steelers. Cleveland could opt to stay with the Ravens on the practice squad or explore his options elsewhere.

The NFL lifted Cleveland's three-game suspension Monday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
EDGE Analysis
Cleveland has served his three-game suspension for violating the league's Substances of Abuse Policy. The fifth-year pro will be available for Sunday's regular-season finale against the Steelers, when he'll serve in a rotational role on the Ravens' offensive line and as a contributor on special teams.

The NFL suspended Cleveland for three games Monday due to violating the league's Substances of Abuse Policy.
EDGE Analysis
Cleveland has served mostly as a blocker on special teams this season, though his absence means Baltimore's depth on the offensive line will be depleted for the next three games. He's eligible to return Week 18 against the Steelers on Jan. 4.

The Ravens are re-signing Cleveland to a contract.
EDGE Analysis
Cleveland worked as a backup at left guard last year and played in all 19 of Baltimore's regular-season and postseason contests. He'll likely again work in a rotational role now that he's back with Baltimore, though he could be facing punishment from the league after being arrested for DUI in mid-February.

Cleveland was arrested in Georgia on Feb. 12, receiving one citation for driving under the influence of alcohol and one for failing to maintain lane, Brian Wacker of The Baltimore Sun reports.
EDGE Analysis
Cleveland held down a backup role at left guard for Baltimore during the 2024 campaign, appearing in all 17 of the team's regular-season games, plus both playoff contests. As a 2021 third-round pick, Cleveland's rookie contract has now run its course, positioning him to become an unrestricted free agent this offseason.

EDGE Analysis
Cleveland hasn't played since Week 4 due to the injury. Although the report is only an estimate, it appears Cleveland will be ready to return to the field Thursday against the Buccaneers. It remains to be seen if he'll take back over at left guard, or if Ben Powers will continue to start at the position.

Cleveland (foot) has been ruled out for Sunday's matchup against the Bengals.
EDGE Analysis
Cleveland appears to have suffered the injury during practice this week, as he was added to the injury report Wednesday. He did not practice in any capacity Thursday or Friday, so it's unclear when he may be able to return. Ben Powers will remain the starter at left guard in Cleveland's absence.

Cleveland (undisclosed) was activated from the active/non-football injury list Monday, Jonas Shaffer of The Baltimore Sun reports.
EDGE Analysis
Cleveland passed a conditioning test, did a leg lift and then did a padded practice, according to head coach John Harbaugh. Cleveland was placed on the non-football injury list last Wednesday and hasn't been able to practice with the team. Now healthy, he'll be able to compete for a spot on the Ravens' offensive line.
