The Ravens activated safety Matt Elam on Saturday.

The former first-round pick had been on the team’s injured-reserve list. He hasn’t played in a game since the 2014 playoffs. Elam, 25, has had a disappointing start to his career but is a free agent after the season and now has the second half of the season to either play his way back into the Ravens’ plans or earn a look somewhere else.

Cornerback Robertson Daniel was waived to make room for Elam. The Ravens also officially announced their Friday roster move, the claiming of cornerback Chris Lewis-Harris via waivers from the Bengals.

Both Elam and Lewis-Harris will probably see immediate action. The Ravens have a bunch of secondary injuries headed into Sunday’s game vs. the Steelers and have a short week coming with a Thursday night game vs. the Browns.
