The Baltimore Ravens have multiple talented players at the outside linebacker position. The group has a few players working back from serious injuries in Tyus Bowser and David Ojabo, but there are other contributors on the roster that can hold down the fort until those two return.
Two of the players who will be relied upon in a big way are Odafe Oweh and Justin Houston. Both are entering their second seasons with the team, with Oweh being a second-year player and Houston entering his 12th season. Oweh had previously dubbed Houston as “Yoda”, but after seeing Houston has a headband, has given him the new nickname of “sensei”.

Houston was an important player on Baltimore’s defense during the 2021 season with his veteran presence and experience. Oweh and other young players benefited from having him in the room to teach them about the nuances of the NFL game, and that should continue in 2022.
