The Baltimore Ravens defeated the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 16 to move closer to the AFC North race. Baltimore still needs Pittsburgh’s help to win its division, but its win on Saturday was necessary to give it a chance.
While the Ravens’ star players showed up to play in Week 16, multiple unsung heroes played a massive part in their victory. One defender who made numerous big plays was outside linebacker David Ojabo, who head coach John Harbaugh praised following the game.
“Yes, so good. [David Ojabo] had a couple big pressures and a couple big plays there. David’s been practicing really well, and you see him get his opportunity and step up like that. Really the whole game, [it] was great to see. I’m proud of him.”
Ojabo has had an up-and-down year for Baltimore, including multiple healthy scratches. However, he made the most of his opportunities on Saturday, which could have certainly earned him more playing time moving forward.
