Anderson has struggled with knee injuries and could not participate in the team's mandatory minicamp last week. He was due to make $3.5 million this season. By putting Anderson on the reserve/retired list, it saves the Ravens approximately $2.94 million in cap room, while the team still owns his rights if Anderson decides to return to football.
Replacing Anderson will be rookie first-round pick Michael Oher, who took all of the snaps with the starters in last week's minicamp. Anderson, 33, spent a dozen years with the Cincinnati Bengals, including one playoff appearance in 2005, before signing with the Ravens last season.
