The lull between the last mandatory minicamp and training camp is crucial for a pair of young receivers for the Ravens.
Both Marquise Brown and Miles Boykin will need that time to overcome some injuries because both are expected to be critical part to the offense this season.
Brown is the more concerning of the two because he has yet to fully practice after undergoing surgery on a Lisfranc (foot) injury. This is the same long-term setback that shut down defensive end Brent Urban in 2017.
The Ravens have given Brown plenty of time to heal but the missed practice time has put him behind the other receivers as far as the learning curve with the new offense and developing chemistry with quarterback Lamar Jackson.
