John Harbaugh says it’s a big year for cornerbacks Jalyn Armour-Davis, Damarion Williams

The Baltimore Ravens have a massive amount of talent in their secondary. They recently signed safety Eddie Jackson to pair up with Kyle Hamilton and Marcus Williams, but their cornerback room also looks to be one of the deepest in the NFL.

Marlon Humphrey, Brandon Stephens, and Nate Wiggins headline Baltimore’s cornerbacks, but a few players fighting for roster spots are Jalyn Armour-Davis and Pepe Williams. The 2022 fourth-round picks will need an impressive training camp and preseason to show what they can do, and head coach John Harbaugh called it a “big year” for both players.

“Yes. It’s a big year for both of those guys. ‘Pepe’ [Damarion Williams] and Jalyn [Armour-Davis], and they’re both practicing so well right now, that’s the thing. I’m excited. [The] first three days in, they’ve both been excellent. Jalyn has made numerous plays on the ball, ‘Pepe’ hasn’t had those chances, but he’s been in the right spots all the time, moving well. ‘Pepe’ is finally healthy. Jalyn is finally healthy. We’ll see what they can do, but I’m very confident that they’re going to do well.”

Both Armour-Davis and Williams have immense potential but haven’t been able to stay healthy and on the field in their first two seasons. The pair could be fighting for only one roster spot, so the competition is expected to remain hot and fresh over the next few weeks.
