The 37-year-old spent time with the Broncos and 49ers last season. His circumstances during the NFC Championship Game between San Francisco and the Philadelphia Eagles contributed to a new rule change from the NFL.

Johnson played his college ball under Jim Harbaugh at the University of San Diego. He was a fifth-round pick by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in 2008. Johnson has appeared in 39 career NFL games, making nine starts. Since 2021, he has passed for 10 touchdowns and four interceptions.

Johnson will be competing with Anthony Brown and Nolan Henderson for the third spot on the Ravens’ depth chart behind Lamar Jackson and Tyler Huntley.
