WATCH: Ravens Training Camp - Red Zone Offense Continues To Excel
As Baltimore Ravens training camp was completed on Tuesday, the offense continued to impress early. And offense is definitely a focus under new offensive coordinator Todd Monken, who takes over an offense that finished 30th in the league in red zone scoring percentage.
Of all the opportunities Baltimore had inside the 20-yard line, they only scored touchdowns 44.4 percent of the time. Only the New York Jets and New England Patriots were worse. Monken and coach John Harbaugh know that has to improve in 2023.
Newly re-signed signal-caller Lamar Jackson was locked in on Tuesday, finding new wideouts Odell Beckham Jr. and Zay Flowers twice for red zone touchdowns. Nelson Agholor, Isaiah Likely and Devin Duvernay also caught touchdown passes.
Agholor has been active all offseason and has made several red zone plays in camp thinks his wideout colleagues are a "very talented group" as he mentioned at presser time, that opposing defenses are going to have a tough time dealing with.
"As it goes for the other teams we play against, they have to defend us all, and that's the most important thing. For us, we just have to make our plays when our number's called."
Flowers has continued to shine as a rookie so far this off-season. he hauled in two touchdowns and own three of his one-on-one matchups with defensive backs, including juking one defender so bad that the defender fell down on a post-corner route.
