West made a strong impression at Monday's open practice, according to the Baltimore Sun.
A third-round pick in the 2014 draft, West is already on his third NFL organization, having washed out of Cleveland and Tennessee. He's noticeably thinner ahead of his third season, weighing in around 215 pounds instead of 230. The weight loss has already paid off, with the Baltimore native making a strong case to earn a roster spot on his hometown team, even though the Ravens have a deep group of running backs. Justin Forsett, Javorius Allen and Kenneth Dixon all seem like locks for the final roster, but the team might keep a fourth running back if West continues to impress. Lorenzo Taliaferro (foot) and Trent Richardson (knee) appear increasingly unlikely to make the team.
