Ravens backup long snapper Patrick Scales signed his $435,000 exclusive-rights free agent tender.
Scales was signed last season after long snappers Kevin McDermott (elbow) and Morgan Cox (torn anterior cruciate ligament) suffered season-ending injuries. He had a high snap against the Pittsburgh Steelers that led to a safety in a playoff game.
The Ravens have signed seven exclusive-rights free agents: Scales, tight end Phillip Supernaw ($585,000), cornerback Rashaan Melvin ($585,000), safety Brynden Trawick ($585,000), wide receiver Kamar Aiken ($585,000), cornerback Tramain Jacobs ($510,000) and center-guard Ryan Jensen ($510,000).
The remaining unsigned exclusive-rights free agents are defensive tackle Casey Walker ($510,000) and running back Fitz Toussaint ($510,000).
