0:00It's September 7. I'm Corey with The Story. This is NFL News Today, driven by AI and Bill for football fans. The Ravens are banking on Trey Hendrickson to bring some serious heat to their past rush, and it sounds like he's already showing why he's the guy. All-protackle Ronnie Stanley, who's seen Hendrickson up close for years, says the secret is his great twitch and great bend. Stanley points out that Hendrickson is elite at bending around the edge while staying strong, a combination that's tough for most defensive ends to. Master. What really sets Hendrickson apart, according to Stanley, is his ability to counter back with power after bending. Many rushes just go straight, but Hendrickson consistently puts pressure on the quarterback with a relentless, never-soft approach. Stanley's perspective carries weight because he's been battling Hendrickson twice a year in division gains for five seasons, and now their teammates. In training camp, despite his consistent production, with 85 and a half career sex, Hendrickson doesn't always get the same hype as some flashier pass.

He's not the guy with the highlight real spin move, but he's effective. Even with some injury setbacks last season, Hendrickson is already proving his worth. The Ravens outside linebacker's coach, Harlan Bauer, calls him a pro's pro who sees the game like a coach. This is huge for the team, especially with younger players like Mike Green and Zion Young on the roster who need to learn the intricacies of getting. To the quarterback, Hendrickson is teaching by example and it's paying off. He recently dominated a joint practice against the Minnesota Vikings, even racking up two or three sacks against one of their top tackles, Christian, Derrissal. This is exactly the kind of disruptive force the Ravens signed him to be, and he's already showing he can deliver.
