A former running back of the Pittsburgh Steelers is looking for a new home.
The Baltimore Ravens have released former Pittsburgh Steelers running back Jonathan Ward, according to NFL insider Aaron Wilson of Houston’s KPRC2.
Ward, 29, signed with the Ravens after a tryout on Aug. 16, marking his second stint with Baltimore. He signed with the Ravens’ practice squad on Dec. 2, 2025, but his contract was not renewed after the season.
He also spent time on the New York Giants and New England Patriots practice squads in 2025.
Ward was last on an active roster during the 2024 season with the Steelers. He was released by Pittsburgh on June 19, 2025 after signing a reserve/future contract earlier in the offseason.
In 2024, Ward appeared in four games and rushed for 22 yards on five carries (4.4 yards per carry). He also recorded two tackles on special teams.
Ward began his NFL career as an undrafted free agent out of the 2020 NFL Draft. He went on to sign with the Arizona Cardinals, who he would play three seasons with.
The Cardinals then released Ward during the 2022 season and he signed to the New York Jets practice squad. However, his time in New York was short-lived as he was released less than a month later.
Ward then signed with the Tennessee Titans, where he jumped between the practice squad and active roster from 2022-23.
He played college football at Central Michigan University, where he rushed for 2,539 yards and 28 touchdowns on 473 carries from 2016-19. He also recorded 98 receptions for 909 yards and four more scores during the span.
