"Madubuike will now miss at least the next four games, but the Ravens have been vague about when he could return. Earlier this week, coach John Harbaugh acknowledged that he's "concerned" that this could be a long-term injury but wasn't allowed to comment any further. Harbaugh said Friday that he didn't have any additional information on Madubuike other than he would miss Sunday's game at Kansas City, adding, "That's as far as I can state with certainty at this point.""
"The loss of Madubuike is a huge one for Baltimore, which ranks last in the NFL in defense for the first time since 2021. With Madubuike sidelined in Monday night's 38-30 loss to the Detroit Lions, the Ravens allowed 207 yards rushing between the tackles, which is the most they've allowed in a game since ESPN began tracking the stat in 2006. Baltimore also didn't record a sack in a game for the first time in four years."
Nnamdi Madubuike was placed on injured reserve and will miss at least four games while the team remains vague on his return timetable. Coach John Harbaugh expressed concern the neck injury could be long-term and declined to provide further details beyond confirming Madubuike would miss the upcoming game. Madubuike's absence significantly weakens Baltimore's defensive front as the team ranks last overall in the NFL, 30th against the run and 31st against the pass. In a recent game without him, the Ravens gave up 207 rushing yards between the tackles and recorded no sacks; Madubuike recorded 21.5 sacks since 2023, the most among defensive tackles.
