Farooq Returns Home, Signs with Ravens as UDFA

0:00On April 27, former Maryland-wide receiver, Jalille Farouk, is heading home to play Pro Ball, signing with the Baltimore Ravens as an undrafted tree. Agent. This comes right after his teammate Octavian Smith Jr. inked deal with the same hometown squad. Farouk marks the fifth turp to land an NFL contract this off-season, and the fourth doing it as a UDFA. Before Maryland, Farouk spent four years at Oklahoma, where he hauled in 89 catches for 1,287 yards and seven scores. An injury wiped out most of his senior year there, so the Prince George's county guy transferred back east for one final college season. That lone year in college park, he led the team with 58 receptions, 545 yards, and four touchdowns. He thrived in the slot, becoming freshman quarterback Malik Washington's go-to option during a big breakout. Now Farouk links up with Smith and ex-turp offensive lineman Cory Bullock on the Ravens roster. Baltimore's aiming to fix up their thin receiver group this off-season.
