The Baltimore Ravens have arguably the strongest and deepest cornerback room in the NFL. But as a result of that depth, one player who tends to get overlooked is Anthony Averett.

Stuck behind the likes of Marlon Humphrey, Marcus Peters, Tavon Young, and Jimmy Smith on the depth chart, Averett is a talented player who could even push for a starting job on other teams.

And that’s exactly how the Ravens feel about him.

Per Jeff Zrebiec of The Athletic, the Ravens believe that they have a “starting-caliber” cornerback in Averett.
