The Baltimore Ravens fielded one of the NFL’s best defensive units in 2016, and part of that was their penchant for taking the ball away.
In the year prior, the unit was almost adverse to turning the ball over, posting a measly six interceptions over 16 games. The turnaround in 2016 season was drastic, as the secondary nabbed 18 interceptions in the same span, a production jump that is due in large part to several key additions made over the previous offseason.
This upcoming offseason will again be vital to how the team’s secondary plays in 2017, because maybe the most important of the aforementioned additions, defensive backs cosch Leslie Frazier, is now coaching with Sean McDermott in Buffalo.
