Lawrence Guy

Quick, name the Baltimore Ravens 2015 sack leader through six weeks.  It’s not Elvis Dumervil, C.J. Mosley, Courtney Upshaw, Brandon Williams, or Timmy Jernigan.  Nope, it’s Lawrence Guy, the career journeyman who has seen an uptick in snaps following a series of injuries.

Guy has seen his role increase each week, and he continues to prove that he belongs in the Ravens defensive rotation.  He snagged his 3rd sack of the season last week against the 49ers, adding 5 tackles, a QB hit, and a tackle for a loss.

Still, Guy has only played slightly less than 50% of the defensive snaps through 6 games thanks to a slow start.  He might not be a budding superstar, but Lawrence Guy is proving that he can contribute to a defense that desperately needs to find a pass rush.
