The Baltimore Ravens continue to face challenges on the defensive front as they suffer another significant injury. In their latest matchup against the Los Angeles Rams, outside linebacker Tavius Robinson was ruled out during the first half. This setback compounds the team’s existing defensive struggles.
Defensive Setbacks for the Ravens
Tavius Robinson, who has been a consistent presence in his rookie season, played in every game until now, maintaining an impressive streak of 40 consecutive games. Prior to the injury, he had accumulated 17 tackles and 2 sacks, which were tied for the team lead.
Impact of Injuries
- Robinson’s absence is particularly concerning following the trade of Odafe Oweh to the Los Angeles Chargers.
- With Robinson sidelined, the Ravens’ outside linebacker depth is tested. Current players include:
- Kyle Van Noy
- Rookie Mike Green
- David Ojabo
In addition to Robinson, left tackle Ronnie Stanley exited the game early due to an ankle injury. This marks the second time in three weeks that Stanley has had to leave a game prematurely. His position has been filled by Joe Noteboom, who has taken over for the third consecutive game.
Looking Ahead
As the Ravens navigate these injuries, the focus will shift to strategic adjustments on defense. The coaching staff will rely on the remaining players to step up in crucial roles as the season progresses.
Adapting to these changes will be essential for the Ravens to maintain their competitive edge in upcoming matches.
