Ravens’ secondary ranked as top unit in NFL by Pro Football Focus

The Baltimore Ravens dealt with a plethora of injuries in 2021 that hurt the team’s chances of making a postseason appearance. They lost players like J.K. Dobbins, Gus Edwards and Marcus Peters before the season started, as well as Marlon Humphrey, Lamar Jackson and more during the year.

Michael Renner of Pro Football Focus detailed his 2022 NFL secondary rankings, and he put Baltimore’s unit at No. 1 despite being one of the worst units in the league last year. Renner credited four of the five starters in the secondary with having top-10 grades at their positions, and that’s without factoring in rookie safety Kyle Hamilton.

“There are a lot of complete secondaries around the NFL, making the Tier 1 rankings a toss-up in a number of ways. The Ravens simultaneously have some of the most question marks heading into 2022 from a health perspective while also possessing the highest-end elite potential. Four of their five starters have earned top-10 grades at their respective positions at some point over the past four seasons. And this list doesn’t even include rookie first-rounder Kyle Hamilton, who will undoubtedly factor in heavily.”

Baltimore has plenty of talent in the secondary that includes cornerbacks Marlon Humphrey, Marcus Peters and Kyle Fuller, as well as Hamilton, Chuck Clark and Marcus Williams at safety.. If the group can stay healthy in 2022, it may be one many opposing quarterbacks will fear to play week in and week out.
