Ravens monitoring former All-Pro CB

Fuller signed a one-year deal with the Ravens last offseason and was immediately tossed into the starting lineup. However, the cornerback tore his ACL during Baltimore’s Week 1 win, ending his season prematurely.

When we last saw Fuller play a full season, he got into 16 games (10 starts) with the Broncos in 2021. The veteran was a trade candidate leading up to that year’s deadline, but he ended up sticking in Denver and finishing with 51 tackles and four passes defended. Pro Football Focus ranked him 111th among 116 qualifying cornerbacks that season.

According to Zrebiec, Fuller remained with the team even after suffering his injury, so he’s already had a chance to familiarize himself with Mike Macdonald’s defense. Pro Football Focus hasn’t graded the veteran as an above-average CB since his All-Pro season in 2018 with the Bears, but Zrebiec notes that Fuller’s ability to play both outside and slot corner could lead to a veteran role in Baltimore for the 2023 campaign.

Marlon Humphrey and Rock Ya-Sin are projected to start on the outside for Baltimore while Brandon Stephens is slated to start at nickelback. Other than that trio, the Ravens are eyeing a grouping of inexperienced cornerbacks that includes fifth-round rookie Kyu Blu Kelly and 2022 fourth-round picks Jalyn Armour-Davis and Damarion Williams.
