BALTIMORE -- Safety Tony Jefferson, rookie running back Tyler Badie and veteran outside linebacker Steven Means were among the players cut Tuesday as the Baltimore Ravens set their initial 53-man roster.

Also on the list: second-year outside linebacker Daelin Hayes, defensive end Brent Urban and safety Ar'Darius Washington.

Here's the full list:

The Ravens could bring some of the cuts back and add other players after placing current members of the roster on injured reserve, freeing up roster spots. 

Running back Kenyan Drake is reportedly going to sign. And as ESPN's Jamison Hensley notes, both outside linebacker David Ojabo and tight end Charlie Kolar had to be on the initial 53-man roster so they could later be placed on injured reserve designated to return.
