Awuzie has three seasons of experience with the Bengals, which gave him a good understanding of AFC North football. Awuzie also has playoff experience, having been a starter cornerback for the Bengals in the 2021 season. They reached the Super Bowl but lost to the Los Angeles Rams.
The Ravens’ 1-5 start was a challenge, and their defense struggled to find its feet before the current winning streak of four games. Awuzie says that the Ravens of this year are similar to the Bengals from 2021 before their playoff run.
Awuzie stated, “When I played on that team everyone bought in.” “There was camaraderie, closeness and trust that you had for your brother. Not only on the field but also in locker rooms, we were all in this together.”
In the NFL, this can be downplayed and you don’t see it very often. A team where everyone has each other’s back. Do I see it here? For sure. “When you experience what we did at the start of the season, you are forced to look left and right. You have to work together.”
Awuzie is a big reason for Ravens’ success, but he believes the defense could reach a higher level. He doesn’t look back and wonder why the team began slowly. He is moving forward and happy to have made the best decision this offseason by signing with Baltimore.
Awuzie stated, “Now it’s up to us to continue doing this.” “We’ve got some great stuff on film. This is the standard. “We must maintain that standard.”
