Jeremy Maclin signed a two-year deal with the Baltimore Ravens, finding a new team 10 days after the former Eagles Pro Bowl wide receiver was released by the Kansas City Chiefs.

Maclin, 29, will reunite with offensive coordinator Marty Mornhinweg, who was his offensive coordinator in Philadelphia for the first four seasons of Maclin's career. He joins a team that could use help at wide receiver. The Ravens return leading receiver Mike Wallace, but former first-rounder Breshad Perriman remains unproven and there is little established depth behind them.

Although a published report linked the Eagles to Maclin last week, coach Doug Pederson said they were not interested in signing Maclin. He visited Buffalo and Baltimore before signing with the Ravens.

Maclin had a career-low 44 catches for 536 yards and two touchdowns last season, but he topped 1,000 receiving yards in the previous two seasons. His best season came in 2014, when he finished with 85 catches for 1,318 yards and 10 touchdowns as the Eagles' No. 1 wide receiver.
