Gus Edwards Receives Second-Round Tender
4 years agoThe Baltimore Ravens placed a second-round tender on impending free-agent running back Gus Edwards on Wednesday. The team also placed tenders on center Trystan Colon-Castillo and linebacker Kristian Welch. Baltimore would clearly like to bring Edwards back after he led the team with 144 carries for 723 yards and six rushing touchdowns in 2020. The Ravens still have J.K. Dobbins and Justice Hill in the backfield after cutting veteran Mark Ingram II, but Edwards should remain the primary back heading into the 2021 season. "Gus is going to be on the team, one way or the other," general manager Eric DeCosta said Tuesday. "We're going to certainly tender him if we don't get a long-term deal done, but he is a Raven. He played his butt off this year, and he had a good season for us."
