The Baltimore Ravens faced a significant challenge without star linebacker Roquan Smith in their recent game against the Los Angeles Chargers. Smith, a key player in their defense, typically plays the majority of snaps, leaving little opportunity for others to shine.
With Smith sidelined, Malik Harrison stepped up impressively, leading the team with 13 tackles. Veteran Chris Board also made an impact, showcasing his skills with four tackles and crucial plays. Coach John Harbaugh acknowledged Board's talent and hinted at more opportunities for him moving forward.
As Smith prepares to return, there are questions about how the defensive lineup will adjust, particularly regarding Board's potential increased role.
