Andrew Vorhees is getting positive reviews from Baltimore Ravens teammates

Remember Andrew Vorhees? He didn’t play football at all last season due to an injury he suffered at the 2023 NFL combine. Yet, he was still able to do bench-press reps in spite of his injury. The Baltimore Ravens were impressed. Though they knew they weren’t going to have an instant-impact player for the 2023 season, they realized they might get a player who could become an important piece of the puzzle in the future, and at a great bargain. The Ravens took Vorhees in the seventh round, hoping that once Vorhees fully healed from his injury, he could be a productive player.

That bet is looking really good right now.

Baltimore Ravens reporter and podcaster Sarah Ellison gathered a reaction from one of Vorhees’ Ravens teammates in preseason camp. Nose tackle Michael Pierce is hugely impressed with what he sees in Vorhees. NFL teams are skittish about taking injured players, but in the later rounds of the draft, a lot of teams with offensive line needs could have taken a flier on him, but only Baltimore did. The Ravens stand to benefit from their forward-thinking process at the 2023 NFL draft.
