Some fresh and returning faces were on the Ravens’ practice field today with the pads on as cornerback Ronald Darby, wide receiver Rashod Bateman and running back J.K. Dobbins all participated in team work.
I noticed there wasn’t the tenacious, raring-to-hit energy that I felt elevated today’s practice. Last week there was the pent-up energy between the offense and defense after going against each other for so long. After the two spirited practices against the Washington Commanders and then yesterday being a walk-through, today felt like a practice focused on getting better. The spare seconds were spent getting back to the line, getting in the play and executing.
