Ravens criticized starter gets major vote of confidence ahead of 2025 season

Baltimore Ravens offensive guard Daniel Faalele struggled in his 2025 preseason debut against the Indianapolis Colts. Although the team won 24-16, Faalele had a horrendous night. He posted a 40.7 overall grade per Pro Football Focus (PFF), one of the worst among starters.

As a result, the former Minnesota Golden Gopher faced a ton of criticism. The Ravens need him to take significant strides in 2025 after Patrick Mekari departed in free agency. Although Thursday night’s performance was uninspiring, it does not mean the coaching staff will give up on him.
