The Baltimore Ravens figured they secured a core piece of their offense when they drafted Ronnie Stanley back in 2016. The sixth-overall pick, he proved a plug-and-play starter instantly and developed into arguably the league’s best left tackle.
Then right after the Ravens made him the highest-paid lineman, Stanley suffered a severe ankle injury. He quite frankly has never fully healed since then over the past three years, always dealing with some nagging issue.
He even accepted a 50-percent pay cut in order to stay with the Ravens this year because of his struggles. But Ronnie Stanley believes he is finally healthy for the first time since that 2020 injury.
