Going into the 2019 season, the Baltimore Ravens appeared to have the best secondary the league had. The cornerback depth was particularly intriguing, seeings how guys like Brandon Carr and Anthony Averett would see inconsistent time despite being capable starters for other teams. This is more so true for Carr, but Averett has always been an interesting prospect.
Unfortunately, Averett now faces a sink-or-swim situation following an untimely injury to starting cornerback Jimmy Smith. Smith, the undisputed no.2 corner on the team, was clipped in his right knee by his own teammate and now has an MCL sprain.
