10 future questions emerging from Baltimore Ravens win over Cincinnati Bengals
8. How would the Baltimore Ravens handle an Odafe Oweh injury?
The Ravens cannot win without escaping the game with injury. Odafe Oweh left after just 14 snaps with an ankle injury (Ed: HC John Harbaugh confirmed there is nothing to worry about on Monday). This is a shame because Oweh looked great in week one and had a chance to put together a strong season.
In his absence Jadeveon Clowney played 47 snaps, David Ojabo played 42 snaps, and Tavius Robinson played 15 snaps. Even Malik Harrison added two snaps on the edge. John Harbaugh said that the injury is not serious, but we know that Harbaugh can be more optimistic than the actual injury report ends up being.
Considering it is an ankle, considering the Ravens started 2-0, and considering their issues with injuries in the past, you have to assume that Oweh will miss this week and potentially another. So, what will happen?
Jadeveon Clowney will remain in his role, and the team will need more from Ojabo and Robinson. Both of them saw an uptick in snaps last week, but both are unproven, and Ojabo did not play well.
