Former Colts and Raiders cornerback Rock Ya-Sin and the Baltimore Ravens have agreed to a one-year deal worth up to $6 million per multiple reports.

Ya-Sin, 27, played for three seasons in Indianapolis before being traded to Las Vegas last offseason, missing time in October and December due to knee injuries.

Now healthy, Ya-Sin should be the favorite to start across from Marlon Humphrey for a Ravens squad with poor depth at cornerback.

Ya-Sin was a 2019 second-round draft pick of the Colts and has at least five passes defended in all his seasons in the NFL. But he has just two career interceptions and hasn't registered more than 45 career tackles since his rookie year.

Appearing in 11 games while making nine starts for the Raiders last season, Ya-Sin finished the final year of his contract with seven passes defended, 45 tackles and one quarterback hit.

The 6-0, 192-pounder played in 12 games during his senior season at Temple, where he amassed 47 tackles, 36 solo, two for loss, and two interceptions.

Ya-Sin will join a roster that already includes Humphrey, Trayvon Mullen, Jalyn Armour-Davis, Damarion Williams, Daryl Worley, Kevon Seymour, and Bopete Keyes.

Last season the Ravens struggled with depth in the secondary, marking seventh-worst in the league allowing just shy of 4,000 yards passing, and 13th-worst in the league allowing 6.7 yards per pass.
