The Ravens have added another weapon to their offense.
The organization has agreed to a one-year deal with former Texans tight end Owen Daniels on Thursday. Daniels was released by the Texans after Bill O'Brien became the new head coach.

TE Owen Daniels agrees with Ravens and will be reunited with his Texans coaches. Good move for him and them.

Looks like a reunion in Baltimore... The Ravens have agreed to terms w/ Owen Daniels. New OC (and frm Texans coach) Gary Kubiak happy

Daniels was a reliable target for the Texans during his eight seasons with the organization. He caught a total of 385 passes for 4,617 yards and 29 touchdowns. Daniels only played five games last year before being put on injured reserve with a broken leg.
Daniels will reunite with Gary Kubiak and tight ends coach Brian Pariani in Baltimore. He'll also team up with Dennis Pitta as the top two tight ends on this roster. Between those two and a receiving corps that includes Torrey Smith, Steve Smith and Jacoby Jones, this offense is shaping up to be more explosive than in seasons past.
