Ravens All-Pro Tackle Set To Return In Week 5

The Baltimore Ravens, despite only trailing for a few minutes in 2022, have a record of 2-2 through four weeks, and although the offence has been clicking, more protection for the ever talented and elusive Lamar Jackson will always be welcomed. After a few weeks of almost getting there, that's what Baltimore can celebrate today, as former All-Pro left tackle Ronnie Stanley is preparing to make his 2022 season debut agains the Cincinnati Bengals, in a major boost for this team.

The #Ravens will welcome All-Pro LT Ronnie Stanley back tomorrow, sources tell me and @RapSheet. After being held out the last few weeks, Stanley will play for the first time since last season’s opener and only the second time since fracturing his ankle almost two years ago.

The AFC North hasn't seen a team jump out and take command of the division yet, and with plenty of offensive firepower, the Ravens certainly have that potential, and for the first time since the season opener in 2021, Stanley will be back on the field. The last time Stanley played a full season, he was named a First-Team All-Pro, and if he can get back to that, he'll be a fantastic addition for Baltimore, and he will bring a veteran, leadership presence to the locker room. 

It's been a while, so don't expect All-Pro Stanley right out of the gates, but with a huge game ahead, Baltimore will need him to be great, and if he can build through the season and stay healthy, this offence should continue to be lethal.
