The Baltimore Ravens will be relying on inside linebacker Patrick Queen to have a big year in his third NFL season. The former LSU star has had somewhat of an up-and-down career ever since being the 28th overall selection in the 2020 NFL draft, so this upcoming season will be big for the third-year pro.
When talking with the media at Baltimore’s second open session of voluntary organized team activities, new Ravens defensive coordinator Mike Macdonald was asked about what he’s seen from a growth perspective from Queen. He talked about the inside linebacker’s communication as well as the game being slower for him, two very important factors as Queen looks to have a productive 2022 season.
“Yes, I see a lot of growth in ‘P.Q.’ [Patrick Queen], really, throughout the whole building and during practice. Obviously, he’s three years in now, but [with] the communication portion, he’s a lot more comfortable in the system. I’d say he’s just … The game is slower for him. But he’s going to have a big-time role in this defense, and I think he knows that. It’s a big year for him. [I’m] just happy with his progress right now, honestly.”
