The Baltimore Ravens will get a big boost in the secondary this week.
Maulet, who signed a two-year extension this offseason, began the season on injured reserve after undergoing arthroscopic knee surgery during training camp. Then in his first practice back, he tweaked his hamstring in an unfortunate setback. As a competitor, starting the season on the sideline was quite disheartening.
Last season was Maulet's first in Baltimore, and he made an impact right away with 37 tackles, five passes defended and an interception. He established himself as the Ravens' clear starting nickel back, so re-signing him this offseason was a no-brainer. "Honestly, I just pick up where I left off from training camp," Maulet said. I was making plays, the guys were flying around. I can just plug in where I was early on in camp and hopefully help out the guys."
There's also the fact that the Ravens rank dead last in passing defense, allowing 287.1 yards per game. However, Maulet believes he can help get the secondary back on track going forward.
