Player Profiles

Odafe Oweh, 26, was drafted as the 31st overall pick in the 2021 NFL Draft. In the 2024 season, he recorded an impressive 10.0 sacks. However, by 2025, his role diminished, and he found himself playing limited snaps on Baltimore’s defense. Notably, he did not start the first two games of the season or participate in a key Week 5 loss to Houston.

Alohi Gilman, 28, has been a significant contributor for the Chargers, playing 87 percent of defensive snaps this season. So far, he has achieved 22 total tackles and three passes defended. Over his career, Gilman has logged five interceptions and created four forced fumbles, bolstering the Ravens’ options in a secondary impacted by injuries this year.

Upcoming Matches

As the teams move forward, the Ravens are set to host the Rams in Week 6, while the Chargers will travel to face the Miami Dolphins. This trade marks a pivotal moment for both franchises as they adjust their rosters and strategies for the remainder of the season.
