According to Baltimore Ravens defensive coordinator Zach Orr, David Ojabo is finally fully healthy enough to practice regularly.
Ojabo, the Ravens’ second-round draft pick in 2022, has only played in three NFL games due to having suffered a torn Achilles and a ruptured ACL.
He did not feature in the preseason-opening loss to the Philadelphia Eagles, but Orr believes his return is coming soon.
“He’s finally healthy enough to stack days in practice,” said Orr.
“All he needed to go was get the reps, and he’s getting great reps out here, so I’m excited for him.
“We know what type of talent he is. He’s strong, big, he’s fast, athletic, he’s mean. He’s everything you look for in an outside linebacker.”
While Ojabo might possess all the tangible assets required to succeed in the National Football League, health, simply put, has eluded him.
Orr summed it up perfectly: “God willing he stays healthy, he’s going to have a great year for us.”
