The Ravens released Bowser (knee) with a non-football injury designation Wednesday, Ryan Mink of the team's official site reports.
Bowser will head to free agency after spending the entirety of his six-year career with Baltimore. The 28-year-old will now look to get healthy and catch on with another team.

Tyus Bowser: Let go by Baltimore
Rotowire
Bowser (knee) is in line to be released by the Ravens, Jeff Zrebiec of The Athletic reports.
Bowser missed the entire 2023 season while recovering from a torn Achilles and a subsequent knee injury, but he anticipates playing in 2024. The linebacker will likely have to earn a role elsewhere after the Ravens parted ways with Bowser on Wednesday to create about $5.5 million in cap space. Bowser's most productive season came in 2021, when he set career highs in both tackles (59) and sacks (7.0).

Ravens' Tyus Bowser: Still working on recovery
Rotowire
Bowser (knee) is making a full recovery from knee surgery and will "definitely be back next season," Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
Bowser told Wilson he is healthy now after dealing with fluid in his knee. The 28-year-old hasn't played since 2022, and, despite hoping to return early last season, he ended up spending the year on the reserve/non-football injury list. Bowser added that he loves playing in Baltimore and wants to get back to how he performed a few seasons ago before suffering a torn Achilles in January 2022.

Ravens' Tyus Bowser: Still without official timetable
Rotowire
Bowser (knee) has yet to return to practice with the Ravens.
Bowser has been able to work off to the side with trainers though, so he's at least active in some capacity. Head coach John Harbaugh said Monday that Bowser's situation has "gotten a little more complicated over the last couple weeks," so it's unclear where the linebacker stands in his recovery. The 28-year-old has been out all season so far after suffering a non-football knee injury, and his eventual potential return will offer Baltimore another significant threat off the edge.

Ravens' Tyus Bowser: Returns to active roster
Rotowire
Bowser (Achilles) was activated to the 53-man roster Tuesday.
Bowser was designated to return from IR on Oct. 12, and his 21-day window to return was nearing its end. Although he has been practicing with the team, it's still unclear whether he'll be available for Monday's game with the Saints. When he does officially suit up for the first time this season, it'll be a big boost to a Ravens linebacker corps that has dealt with multiple injuries this season, which has also led to the recent acquisition of Roquan Smith.

Ravens' Tyus Bowser: Return to active roster imminent
Rotowire
The Ravens are expected to activate Bowser (Achilles) from the reserve/PUP list Wednesday, Clifton Brown of the team's official site reports.
Bowser will re-join Baltimore's 53-man roster in the near future after being designated to return Oct. 12. The 27-year-old has been working his way back from a torn Achilles suffered in last year's regular-season finale, and his first opportunity to play again will come next Monday against the Saints. Bowser totaled career highs in sacks (seven) and tackles (59) last season, and he should help bolster the Ravens' depleted pass-rushing unit when healthy.

Ravens' Tyus Bowser: Back at practice
Rotowire
The Ravens designated Bowser (Achilles) for return to practice Wednesday, Clifton Brown of the team's official site reports.
Bowser is working his way back from a torn Achilles suffered during the 2021 regular-season finale. He now has 21 days to practice without counting against the active roster, and the Ravens can fully remove him from the PUP list at any point in that span.

Ravens' Tyus Bowser: Could be back sooner than later
Rotowire
The Ravens coaching staff believes that Bowser (Achilles) will be available to play shortly after returning from the PUP list following Week 4, Jeff Zrebiec of The Athletic reports.
Bowser has been recovering from a torn Achilles suffered in last year's regular-season finale, leading to his placement on Baltimore's PUP list in late August. As a result, the Ravens have been extremely shorthanded at outside linebacker with rookie David Ojabo (Achilles) set to miss the first half of the regular season while recovering on PUP. Bowser recorded a career-high 59 tackles and seven sacks over 17 contests in 2022, and his quick return could make a major impact behind current starters Odafe Oweh and Justin Houston.

Ravens' Tyus Bowser: Shifts to reserve/PUP list
Rotowire
The Ravens placed Bowser (Achilles) on the reserve/PUP list Friday.
Bowser tore his Achilles during the Ravens' regular-season finale this past January and will be forced to miss at least the first four games of the 2022 regular season. The 2017 second-round pick emerged as a regular starter last season and projects to regain that role once fully healthy.

Ravens' Tyus Bowser: On track for training camp
Rotowire
Coach John Harbaugh said Bowser (Achilles) "will be back for training camp", Todd Karpovich of SI.com reports.
Bowser suffered a torn Achilles during the Ravens' regular-season finale, so it's encouraging that he's still on track to to participate in at least some drills at the start of training camp. After having emerged as a regular starter in 2021 and notching a career-high seven sacks, it will be notable for Baltimore's defense if Bowser is able to return early in the 2022 campaign.

Ravens' Tyus Bowser: Sees 17 snaps in home loss
Rotowire
Bowser, in a limited role, finished Sunday's 40-25 loss to the Browns with a pair of tackles, including a sack.
The 24-year-old linebacker played sparingly but was able to record a sack in what amounted to a cameo appearance Sunday. Bowser played only a quarter of his team's snaps on defense in Week 4 and currently holds little to no value in IDP formats.

Ravens' Tyus Bowser: Adds second sack
Rotowire
Bowser had two solo tackles, one sack and a pass breakup Thursday against the Dolphins.
The rookie second-round pick hasn't played more than 15 defensive snaps since Week 2 but he still made his presence known Thursday. He may continue to be summoned in pass rush situations, but with the Titans on the horizon in Week 9, Bowser will have a tough time getting to quarterback Marcus Mariota, who has been sacked on just 2.76 percent of his dropbacks.

Ravens' Tyus Bowser: Second-round pick for Baltimore
Rotowire
The Ravens selected Bowser in the second round of the 2017 NFL Draft, 47th overall.
Bowser (6-foot-3, 247 pounds) is a superb athlete (4.65-second 40, 127-inch broad jump) who was a very productive disruptor in a dominant Houston defense, finishing the 2016 season with 8.5 sacks and 12 tackles for loss in eight games. He should emerge as a starting outside linebacker in Baltimore's 3-4 soon enough, though that position would likely limit his IDP upside.
