The Baltimore Ravens traded a second-round pick, a fifth-round pick and linebacker A.J. Klein in exchange for inside linebacker Roquan Smith from the Chicago Bears right before the trade deadline. The acquisition of Smith added a high-quality piece to Baltimore’s defense, a unit that has began to hit their stride over the last few weeks.
Smith slots in next to fellow inside linebacker Patrick Queen, who has played well himself over the course of the 2022 season. When asked about how Smith and Queen can play off of each other, Ravens inside linebackers coach Zach Orr shared his excitement about what the two can do as a duo on the field at the same time.
