The Ravens exercised Oweh's (thumb) 2025 fifth-year option. Selected 31st overall in the 2021 NFL Draft, Oweh has 13 sacks across 45 appearances through his first three seasons. He's yet to top five sacks in a single season and hasn't developed into a full-time edge rusher, seeing his snap rate decrease each season, bottoming out at 50 percent in 2023. Still, the Ravens have high hopes for the 25-year-old. Owen underwent thumb surgery following the playoff loss to the Chiefs.

Year-Round.
The Ravens exercised Oweh's (thumb) 2025 fifth-year option. Selected 31st overall in the 2021 NFL Draft, Oweh has 13 sacks across 45 appearances through his first three seasons. He's yet to top five sacks in a single season and hasn't developed into a full-time edge rusher, seeing his snap rate decrease each season, bottoming out at 50 percent in 2023. Still, the Ravens have high hopes for the 25-year-old. Owen underwent thumb surgery following the playoff loss to the Chiefs.
Oweh didn't notch a sack in either of the first two games of the campaign and then sat out four weeks due to an ankle injury, but he's come on strong since. The 24-year-old has registered exactly one sack in each of his past three contests and in four of five games overall since returning from the injury. He needs just one more sack to tie the career-best 5.0 sacks he established as a rookie in 2021.
Oweh got off to a slow start in his third season in the league, mostly due to an ankle injury that sidelined him for four straight contests, but it now looks like he may have finally found his stride. Sunday's was his second straight game with a sack and his third in four weeks since he returned from the ankle issue. He should see a healthy dose of pass-rushing opportunities in Week 11 versus the pass-happy Bengals.
Oweh was able to play through his ankle injury in Week 7 and he'll do so again Sunday versus the Cardinals. The linebacker recorded three tackles, including a sack, in last week's win over the Lions.
