Teddye Buchanan could give the Ravens’ defense a needed boost on SNF

Connor Burke of Ebony Bird argues that linebacker Teddye Buchanan could provide a crucial boost to the Baltimore Ravens' defense against the Atlanta Falcons on Sunday Night Football. Buchanan saw his defensive workload increase from three snaps in Week 3 to 11 snaps in Week 4, and defensive coordinator Jesse Minter confirmed the coaching staff will seek ways to utilize him alongside starters Roquan Smith and Trenton Simpson.

Burke highlights Buchanan's tackling reliability, noting his 8.6% missed-tackle rate as a rookie, as a key asset against Falcons running back Bijan Robinson. The writer suggests that deploying Buchanan alongside Smith and Simpson could significantly help Baltimore counter Atlanta's run-heavy offensive scheme.
