The Baltimore Ravens have made multiple splashes over the course of 2022 free agency. One of those moves was the signing of offensive tackle Morgan Moses, who the team signed to a three-year, $15 million deal on the second day of the legal tampering period. - During his introductory press conference, Moses was asked about how comfortable he would be playing on the left side if injury concerns pushed him there. He talked about how it’s all about adapting and performing wherever he’s placed on the field. - “Hey, look man. Sometimes, you just have to throw yourself in the water and just know that you can swim. (laughter) So, if it happens, obviously I’ve played left tackle before. It’s just about adapting. Like I’ve said, I’ve had some great offensive line coaches. Coach ‘Joe D’ [Joe D’Alessandris] said he’s talked to some of the O-line coaches I’ve had. I’ve had [former Washington Commanders offensive line coach] Bill Callahan. I’ve had [Washington Commanders offensive line coach] John Matsko. All of those guys train you to play multiple positions, because you don’t know. Obviously, you can only carry so many offensive linemen on gameday, and I’ve been a part of teams where you lose three, and then it’s a shuffle. You have to play guard, and you have to play tackle. You might not have gotten work on it during the week, but it’s just how it goes, and you have to be prepared. So, I think knowing the game of football, learning different positions, but also learning your position and understanding what everybody else is doing is the big part to be able to switch positions like that, because things happen. You guys … We’ve seen it this year, this past season with the team with all the injuries and things like that, people have to shuffle. Because at the end of the day, other teams don’t really care – you just have to go out there and perform. The coaches’ jobs are to put the gameplan out there, and the job for the players is to go execute.” - - - - - - - - - - - - Email - - - - - Sign up - - - - - - - - Like this article? - Sign up for the Ravens Wire email newsletter to get our top stories in your inbox every morning - - - - An error has occured - - - Please re-enter your email address. - - - - - - Thanks for signing up! - - - You'll now receive the top Ravens Wire stories each day directly in your inbox.
