Optimism That Nnamdi Madubuike Will Return From Neck Injury
There has been "growing optimism" that Baltimore Ravens two-time Pro Bowl defensive lineman Nnamdi Madubuike (neck) will return to the NFL, according to Jamison Hensley of ESPN. Madubuike suffered what was believed to be a career-threatening neck injury last year and only appeared in two games in 2025 before being placed on Injured Reserve. The 28-year-old former third-rounder (71st overall) in 2020 out of Texas A&M was a Pro Bowler in both 2023 and 2024, combining for 99 tackles (59 solo), 19.5 sacks, 23 tackles for loss, 50 QB hits, and two forced fumbles in 34 starts. It's unclear exactly when Madubuike will be able to return to the football field, but if he's available to play in 2026, it would be a big boost for the Ravens' defensive line. Baltimore's pass rush was poor last season, as they were tied with the Cardinals and Panthers for the third-fewest sacks (30) in the NFL.
