| Biography: |
| Deion Sanders UFA Ravens – The veteran cornerback came back to play in 2004 after being out of the league for three seasons. Sanders, on his return to the league, was essentially the club’s nickel back but he was limited to just nine games due to a foot injury. He had his ups and downs in that role but still has enough speed to not be a liability in coverage. Should he return for another season of play, he still should be able to handle about 30 plays or so which would have him destined for a nickel role again.
