Baltimore Ravens' Nnamdi Madubuike Passes Physical, Returns From PUP List After Neck Injury
The Pro Bowl defensive tackle returned after neck surgery and a 10-month absence, giving Baltimore a needed boost to a pass rush that ranked last in sacks.
- On Wednesday, Baltimore Ravens defensive tackle Nnamdi Madubuike passed his physical and returned to practice at the Under Armour Performance Center in Owings Mills, marking his first practice in 10 months following a neck injury.
- Madubuike was sidelined indefinitely last season after suffering a career-threatening neck injury in Week 2 against the Cleveland Browns. He underwent neck surgery in April, which doctors believed would enable his return.
- Recording 21.5 sacks between 2023 and his injury, Madubuike proved his value as Baltimore's most disruptive defensive lineman. Ravens safety Kyle Hamilton said, "I don't think it takes a genius to realize that we'll get better when he's on the field."
- Coach Jesse Minter indicated the team will carefully manage Madubuike's activity over the next couple of weeks. "I think everybody has a good feeling about where he's at and where it's headed," Minter said.
- Baltimore looks more formidable with the return of Madubuike alongside newly acquired edge rusher Trey Hendrickson. The Ravens previously committed a four-year, $98 million contract with $75.5 million guaranteed to secure the defensive tackle.
