“Oh my God,” Ravens head coach John Harbaugh said in a brief statement. “This is devastating news. Our prayers and hopes are with Tray and his family tonight.”
Walker, 23, was a fifth-round pick in the 2015 NFL Draft and spent most of his rookie season contributing on special teams. He played in eight games and finished the year with a tackle. Walker played collegiately at Texas Southern and was the highest player drafted from the university in more than two decades.
