Records sack in win
Oweh finished with four tackles (two solo), including a tackle for a loss and 1.0 sacks, in Monday's 41-31 win over the Buccaneers.
The outside linebacker also played on half of the defensive snaps. Oweh has 18 tackles (12 solo), including 4.5 sacks, and a forced fumble this season.
Records sack in win
Oweh finished with two tackles (one solo), including a sack, in the Ravens' 35-10 win over the Bills on Sunday.
The linebacker also played on 58 percent of the defensive snaps and helped limit a high-powered Buffalo offense to 236 total yards. Oweh has 11 tackles, including 3.5 sacks, and a forced fumble in four games this season.
Records 2.5 sacks in loss
Oweh recorded five tackles (four solo), including 2.5 sacks, and one forced fumble in Baltimore's loss to Las Vegas on Sunday.
The 25-year-old played 67 percent of the defensive snaps in the loss to the Raiders, and he made the most of them with a career-best afternoon. On the very first play from scrimmage versus the Raiders, Oweh sacked Gardner Minshew and forced a fumble, though it was recovered by LT Kolton Miller.
Past ankle injury
Oweh (ankle) was spotted participating in Wednesday's practice, Jonas Shaffer of TheBaltimoreBanner.com reports.
Oweh left Baltimore's camp session Tuesday with an ankle injury, but it appears as if he's already moved past the issue. The 2021 first-round pick out of Penn State recorded 23 total tackles, including 5.0 sacks, across 13 regular-season games in 2023. He's expected to remain one of the Ravens' top pass rushers heading into the team's 2024 campaign.
Dealing with sprained ankle
Oweh missed Tuesday's practice due to a sprained ankle, Jonas Shaffer of TheBaltimoreBanner.com reports.
It's unclear how severe the sprain is, but the Ravens could take the cautious approach and hold Oweh out of all three preseason games, starting with Friday's contest against the Eagles. The 2021 first-round pick played in 13 regular-season games last year, finishing with 23 tackles (20 solo), including 5.0 sacks, and two forced fumbles. If Oweh's ankle sprain were to keep him sidelined for an extended period of time, Tavius Robinson and David Ojabo would be next in line to compete for first-team reps at outside linebacker opposite starter Kyle Van Noy.
Looks good at OTAs
Oweh (thumb) has impressed at the Ravens' organized team activities, Ryan Mink of the team's official website reports.
Oweh underwent thumb surgery following the 2023 season, but his presence at OTAs indicates he has fully recovered. Baltimore picked up his fifth-year option in April. The 31st overall pick in the 2021 NFL Draft has tallied 13.0 sacks across 45 appearances during his first three seasons. He projects to start opposite Kyle Van Noy at outside linebacker in the upcoming season.
Option picked up
The Ravens exercised Oweh's (thumb) 2025 fifth-year option.
Selected 31st overall in the 2021 NFL Draft, Oweh has 13 sacks across 45 appearances through his first three seasons. He's yet to top five sacks in a single season and hasn't developed into a full-time edge rusher, seeing his snap rate decrease each season, bottoming out at 50 percent in 2023. Still, the Ravens have high hopes for the 25-year-old. Owen underwent thumb surgery following the playoff loss to the Chiefs.
Undergoes thumb surgery
Head coach John Harbaugh told reporters Friday that Oweh underwent thumb surgery since the Ravens lost in AFC Championship Game, Jamison Hensley of ESPN.com reports.
Oweh missed four games with an ankle injury earlier in the year, but it also seems as if he was dealing with a thumb issue that he's now had surgically repaired. Harbaugh mentioned that he expects Oweh's recovery to take roughly 6-to-8 weeks, which means the 2021 first-round pick should be ready for Baltimore's offseason programs, per Clifton Brown of the team's official site.
