The Baltimore Ravens drafted inside linebacker Patrick Queen with the No. 28 overall pick in the 2020 NFL draft. While he had an up-and-down first few seasons in the NFL, he’s turned in to a consistent player who has grown tremendously.
Queen has kicked off the 2023 season with a bang, playing at an extremely high level. When defensive coordinator Mike Macdonald was asked about the level that Queen is playing at, he gave his thoughts on the former LSU star’s growth, especially from the leadership department.

And I’d speak for the whole defense and team rather; the mentality and the things and the discussions that we’ve had after the game – not that you’re proud to hear it – it’s reflective of the character of the guys we have on the team. Everyone is looking inwardly. We’re humble and hungry enough to look for things that we can do differently on an individual basis and eventually make our team better to take the next step and become the team we want to be over the course of the year. We’re three games in, going into the fourth game. We have, hopefully, a bunch more after this, and really, I think that attitude is reflective throughout the locker room.”
