The Baltimore Ravens’ strength coaches received an F-minus grade in the NFLPA’s survey of franchises, which was revealed on Wednesday. New England Patriots defensive tackle Carl Davis, a former Raven, tweeted his unpleasant experience with the strength coaches himself.
Davis was hobbled by the injury bug in his first couple seasons in the NFL. He missed the entire 2016 season with an ankle injury, and he began to find his footing in 2017. He appeared in 15 games for Baltimore but was ultimately released by the team in 2018.
Davis came to the Patriots in 2020 and has recorded 33 tackles in three seasons with the organization. He played in 16 games last season and tallied 11 tackles and a sack. The veteran defensive tackle helped New England with additional depth at the position, and he gave them a serviceable player on the line.

Davis is one of several free-agent decisions the organization will have to make in the coming weeks. But if this tweet is any indication, the Ravens certainly don’t appear to be a preferred destination.
