The Baltimore Ravens were hit extremely hard by injuries in 2021, especially in their secondary. They needed to bring in multiple new faces from outside of the organization in order to deal with the ailments, and one of those players was then-former Ravens safety Tony Jefferson.
Jefferson played in four games with the team last season during his second stint with the team and stepped up in a big way, finishing the campaign with 17 total tackles and one sack. On Thursday afternoon, the team announced that they re-signed Jefferson, bringing him back after impressing in a big way during 2021.
The veteran is a physical player who can provide run support and even hold his own in coverage against running back and tight ends. He put all of those things on display in his limited action last year, and Baltimore clearly saw enough value in him to make sure he didn’t leave for another team.
