The Baltimore Ravens signed former Texans running back Tyler Ervin to their practice squad.
Ervin was released last week when the Texans claimed wide receiver DeAndre Carter off waivers from the Philadelphia Eagles.
Ervin was averaging 25.3 yards per kickoff return and 8.3 yards per punt return.
He had filled in as a slot receiver with Keke Coutee sidelined with a hamstring injury, catching three passes for 35 yards.
