The Ravens extended a one-year, $1.67 million tender to Ford on Tuesday, Chris Tomasson of the St. Paul Pioneer Press reports.
The former Viking was jettisoned by the team in early November and picked up by the Ravens within a week, but Ford didn't log a snap with either organization in 2015. Previously, in 20 games between 2013 and 2014 in Minnesota, he totaled 34 receptions (on 51 targets) for 391 yards and one touchdown. He'll have difficulty getting back in the act with the Ravens bringing Ben Watson into a positional group that also includes Crockett Gillmore (back), Maxx Williams, and Dennis Pitta (hip).
