Chidobe Awuzie’s NFL career has been a mix of potential and frustration due to injuries. After being let go by the Tennessee Titans, his signing with the Baltimore Ravens marks a significant opportunity for his future. The one-year contract suggests the Ravens are hopeful he can return to form when healthy, as they recognize his past flashes of strong play.
Awuzie’s standout season with the Cowboys in 2019 demonstrated his reliability when fully fit, with 79 tackles, 14 pass deflections, and solid coverage stats. However, his career has been hindered by injuries, including a torn ACL in 2022, preventing him from having consistent seasons.

Now with the Ravens, Awuzie has the chance to prove himself as a key contributor again. Known for their tough defense, the Ravens could benefit from his skills in the secondary if he stays healthy. They likely see him as a low-risk, high-reward addition, especially with the Titans still covering much of his salary.
It will be fascinating to see how Awuzie fits into the Ravens’ defense and whether he can rediscover the form that once made him a promising cornerback with Dallas and Cincinnati.
