Ravens training camp: A few things to look forward to this summer
By Steve Rudden
Baltimore Ravens training camp kicks off in a little over a month from now, but as fans, we all have things to look forward to watching during that month of practices.
The things we will be looking forward to during Ravens training camp next month at One Winning Drive will be an array of different areas around the team, when it comes to the offense, defense, offseason additions, etc.
The first thing that we could look forward to during training camp will be newly-signed guard Kevin Zeitler and 2021 NFL Draft pick Ben Cleveland.
The offense line is going to be key in 2021 with the departure of Orlando Brown Jr. and with Ronnie Stanley coming back from injury. Hopefully, Zeitler can fill the massive home left by Marshal Yanda’s absence.
The Ravens will keep an eye on a number of players in training camp.
The second thing to watch during training camp will be the return of Tavon Young. Young has been injured the past few seasons, but when healthy he has played well for the Ravens defense.
Lord knows depth in the secondary has been an issue for the Ravens defense the last few years, so adding Young back to the defense will be huge.
The third thing to keep an eye on during training camp is going to be the new offensive weapons that Lamar Jackson now has. Drafting Rashod Bateman to go along with Marquise Brown is going to help the passing game.
Now, teams will have to gameplan against both knowing that they could get beat downfield on any given play. It’s going to be great to see the chemistry between Bateman and Jackson blossom.
The fourth and final thing that to watch during this training camp will simply be the return of preseason games shortly after camp ends.
They may not be the most exciting or eventful, but preseason games can help younger players get much-needed game reps that they couldn’t achieve in the regular season.
What are you looking forward to seeing at Baltimore Ravens 2021 training camp? Will the Ravens defense be able to overcome to offseason losses of Matt Judon and Yannick Ngakoue?
Only time will tell.
