The Baltimore Ravens settled the debate on how they would approach OLB Odafe Oweh‘s fifth-year option prior to the deadline. Baltimore had until Thursday, May 2, to decide whether they would exercise the option on the 2021 first round linebacker.
The Ravens decided not to wait till the last minute and on Tuesday, April 30, they posted on X, “We have picked up @DafeOweh‘s fifth-year option.”
Oweh was the second of the first round picks that general manager Eric DeCosta had to decide on this offseason. He signed WR Rashod Bateman to a bridge contract prior to the draft.
