Could notch 10+ sacks: Baltimore Ravens defender named to all-breakout team

“Jesse Minter’s return to Baltimore — and Trey Hendrickson‘s arrival in Charm City — should lead to a monstrous season for the second-year pro. Green is a twitchy edge defender with the first-step quickness and burst to create problems for lumbering tackles unable to match his energy,” Brooks said.

“Moreover, he gets a chance to showcase his skills in an attack-style scheme that will force opponents to deal with the ultra-feisty Hendrickson on one side, leading to plenty of isolated matchups for the 6-foot-3, 250-pounder. After tallying 3.5 sacks, 14 quarterback hits and 41 total tackles in his debut season, Green could notch 10-plus sacks as a designated pass rusher on a defense that is transitioning from a conservative approach to an aggressive style that should produce more sacks.”

“I think that cut-up showed me a lot about myself,” Green said, via Ryan Mink of the team’s website. “Even though I feel like I didn’t necessarily meet the standard that I wanted to meet last year, I came very close.”

“It’s a little bit more attacking rather than containing,” Green said. “I feel like a lot last year was a little bit more containing, a little bit more conservative. But I think now, it’s like, ‘Go you attack the quarterback, do your best moves.’ So I feel like that can bring a lot of more things to the table, especially when you’ve got these great pass rushers in the room.”
