The Baltimore Ravens have suffered a significant blow with the injury of their promising safety, Ar'Darius Washington, who will miss the entire season due to a torn Achilles. Washington had been pivotal in the team's defensive scheme and was expected to play a larger role following the team's draft of Georgia standout Malaki Starks. With Washington now sidelined, the Ravens must explore the free-agent market for potential replacements.

Several notable veterans are available, providing the Ravens with options to bolster their secondary. The team's previous commitment to Washington, reflected in their exclusive rights tender earlier this year, highlights their belief in his potential. As they navigate this challenging situation, the Ravens look to integrate a new player into their defense without skipping a beat.
