Ojabo recorded a sack on his only tackle in Thursday's 27-20 loss to the Chiefs. Ojabo didn't exactly stuff the stat sheet, but his lone contribution was a meaningful one. The 24-year-old linebacker has already matched his season sack total from each of the previous two years.
Ojabo (knee) looked healthy playing in Saturday's preseason game versus the Falcons, Jeff Zrebiec of The Athletic reports. It was Ojabo's first game action since he underwent surgery to repair a ruptured ACL back in November of 2023, and it signals he should be ready to play come Week 1 of the regular season. He projects to play a rotational role on the edge for Baltimore in 2024.
Ojabo was not cleared to play in Friday's preseason loss to the Eagles, Jeff Zrebiec of The Athletic reports. Although Ojabo has been fully participating in practices, he has not yet been cleared for games. He is looking to return from ACL surgery performed in late November of last year. It looks like the Ravens are just exercising caution with the third-year linebacker.
Ojabo (knee) was a full participant at the Ravens' first practice at training camp Sunday, Jeff Zrebiec of The Athletic reports. Ojabo appears to have made a full recovery from the ACL surgery he underwent in late November. The linebacker appeared in three games in 2023, securing six total tackles, including a sack, while also forcing a fumble. The former second round pick from the 2022 NFL Draft has been limited to just five contests over his first two campaigns in the league and he'll look to leave his injury woes behind entering year three.
Coach John Harbaugh said Thursday that Ojabo (knee) will probably be ready to practice in full at some point during training camp, Jamison Hensley of ESPN.com reports. Ojabo missed most of his second NFL season after sustaining a torn ACL in Week 3, but it now looks like he should be back to 100 percent by the start of the 2024 campaign. Through his first two NFL seasons combined, he's appeared in just five games.
Ojabo will remain on Baltimore's injured reserve list for the remainder of the season as he recovers. He's had remarkably rough injury luck to begin his career, playing in just five total games over his first two NFL seasons. His absence leaves Kyle Van Noy and rookie fourth-rounder Tavius Robinson as the Ravens' primary depth options on the edge for the rest of the year.
