The Ravens released Ryan (hamstring) with a non-football injury designation Thursday, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio reports.

EDGE Analysis

Ryan missed the entire 2018 campaign due to an ACL tear, and he only managed to participate in two games in 2019 -- both with the Jaguars -- while being relegated to special teams before being sidelined with a hamstring issue. The 28-year-old will now focus on making a full recovery before trying to garner a chance with another club, where he'll likely be forced to settle for a depth role.

Ryan (hamstring) signed a one-year deal with the Ravens on Saturday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

EDGE Analysis

When healthy, Ryan is an effective run stopper. The linebacker has tallied 213 combined tackles across five seasons, and his signing provides the Ravens defense with some much-needed experience. That being said, Ryan missed the first 12 games of 2019 with a knee injury, and ultimately played just two games of the entire season, exclusively on special teams, before hitting injured reserve, this time with a hamstring injury.

The Jaguars declined to pick up Ryan's (hamstring) 2020 option, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

EDGE Analysis

Ryan missed the first 12 games due to a knee injury, and after getting back in action for two contests, he was placed on season-ending injured reserve with a hamstring injury. Over those two games, Ryan only played on special teams. This move will save the Jaguars cap space. Ryan hasn't played a full season since 2017 with the Packers, and he'll likely seek a reserve role elsewhere.

Ryan (hamstring) was placed on injured reserve Tuesday, Michael DiRocco of ESPN.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

An offseason signing by the Jaguars, Ryan will finish his first season in Jacksonville with 35 special teams snaps and no tackles in two games. The Jaguars signed free agent Dakota Allen to bolster their middle linebacker depth now that Ryan is done for the rest of the season.

Coach Doug Marrone said Monday that Ryan (hamstring) will be sidelined "indefinitely," John Reid of The Florida Times-Union reports.

EDGE Analysis

Ryan exited Sunday's loss to the Chargers in the second quarter and did not retake the field. Wednesday's first injury report of the week should shed some light on the depth linebacker's status, but he appears to be trending toward sitting out Week 15's tilt in Oakland. Joe Giles-Harris stands to play an expanded depth role as long as Ryan is unable to go.

Ryan (hamstring) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Titans.

EDGE Analysis

The specifics of the injury remain unclear, but Ryan was forced to exit the game in the second quarter. As long as he's sidelined, Joe Giles-Harris would be the likely beneficiary to see an uptick in snaps as a depth linebacker.

Ryan (knee) was activated from the reserve/non-football injury list Saturday, Tad Dickman of the Jaguars' public relations reports.

EDGE Analysis

Ryan suffered a setback on his surgically repaired right knee in July and was subsequently placed on the NFI list prior to Week 1. It appears he is finally ready to make his season debut, but it remains to be seen what type of workload he will see out the gate. The 27-year-old could potentially retake his starting job at weak-side linebacker sooner than later.

Coach Doug Marrone said Monday that he expects Ryan (knee) to participate in practice, Michael DiRocco of ESPN.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Marrone also said that he expects Ryan to come off the non-football injury list, but he did not offer an official timetable for the linebacker's return. Ryan has been sidelined the entire season while recovering from a setback in his surgically repaired right knee. When back to full health, the 27-year-old could retake his starting gig at weak-side linebacker.

Ryan (knee) was shifted to the regular-season non-football injury list Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

Ryan landed on the NFI list in July and was managing a setback with his surgically repaired right knee, and he's still recovering at the start of the regular season. The 27-year-old suffered the ACL tear in the 2018 preseason, and the specifics of his setback remain unclear, though it didn't require additional surgery. Ryan has no official timetable for his return but he now won't be eligible to play until after Week 6.

Coach Doug Marrone said Thursday that Ryan (knee) had "a setback during summer" resulting in his placement on the non-football injury list, Phillip Heilman of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

The nature of Ryan's setback remains undisclosed, though Phillip Heilman reports that he is not expected to require surgery. The linebacker is working his way back from an ACL tear sustained during the 2018 preseason, and will be unable to practice until he receives medical clearance. If he's able to return to full health without any more setbacks, Ryan is expected to start at weak-side linebacker.
