Ravens HC John Harbaugh shares impressions of TE Josh Oliver
The Baltimore Ravens have had to rely on multiple different contributors through Week 5 of the 2022 season. One of the deeper positions on the team is at tight end, where they boast players such as Mark Andrews, Isaiah Likely, Josh Oliver, Nick Boyle, and Charlie Kolar.
Oliver has made more of an impact so far in 2022 than many anticipated before the year began. Baltimore head coach John Harbaugh was asked about Oliver following Friday’s practice session ahead of Week 6 against the New York Giants, and praised the fourth-year player’s ability to contribute both as a blocker and a pass catcher.
“Very impressed. Josh [Oliver] has learned a lot from Nick [Boyle]; Nick works with him every single day, and Josh has done well with that. He’s one of the guys … Not a surprising guy, because we held out the idea that he was going to do really well, but I don’t think coming in here when he was traded here, the thought was that he was going to be a really good blocker. He can get down the field now and run seam routes and all that, and I’m hoping he has some big plays going forward, but he’s really turned it on as a blocker.”
