New players emerge as worthwhile contributors to their respective teams in the NFL every season. Despite having one of the league\u2019s best rosters on paper, the Baltimore Ravens<\/a> will need a few unknown players to step up and fill roles on both sides of the ball. <\/p>\n

Today\u2019s Question of the Day is:<\/p>\n

Which under-the-radar player will have the biggest impact for the Ravens in 2025?<\/p>\n

My answer: Sanoussi Kane<\/p>\n

Baltimore suddenly has a need at the safety position after Ar\u2019Darius Washington tore his Achilles during offseason conditioning. While the two starters are set with All-Pro Kyle Hamilton and first-round rookie Malaki Starks, a third reliable safety will be needed to fill in on the backend of the defense to free up Hamilton to play closer to the line of scrimmage, where he has been one of the most impactful defenders in the league.<\/p>\n

The Ravens could opt to bring in a veteran safety to fill the role, but after the signing of Eddie Jackson backfired last season, general manager Eric DeCosta could decide to see what the younger in-house options could provide first. This opens the door for both second-year safeties Sanoussi Kane and Beau Brade to carve out a meaningful role on defense after primarily playing special teams as rookies. Reports of Kane\u2019s play through OTAs have been positive. The 2024 seventh-round pick came down with a leaping interception during last Tuesday\u2019s practice, which earned him some praise from head coach John Harbaugh.<\/p>\n

\u201cI saw [Sanoussi Kane] flashing today,\u201d Harbaugh said<\/a>. \u201cYou saw it too, right? Flying around, showing up where he\u2019s supposed to show up. I think he\u2019s taken a big step this year. It\u2019s starting to look like he could be that guy, maybe play that role as a third safety, perhaps. [He\u2019s] got a long way to go still, but he\u2019s looking like he\u2019s got a shot.\u201d<\/p>\n
