  "account": "The Baltimore Ravens will need to make changes to their defense after losing Tavius Robinson for the season. Head coach Jesse Minter is optimistic that young outside linebackers Zion Young and Ethan Burke can take on increased responsibilities. Both players have shown progress in their development, having played enough games and gained familiarity with the scheme. Robinson's absence is significant as he is a versatile edge defender who contributes against the run and as a pass rusher. Minter believes Young can fill this void, especially with the Ravens focusing on increasing his involvement in rushing the quarterback. While stopping the run was an early-season emphasis, Minter expects Young to expand his role to attacking opposing quarterbacks. Young's physicality makes him a strong edge rusher, but he will need to improve his pass-rushing skills as his responsibilities grow. Burke is also being considered for the Ravens as they adjust their defensive rotation. Minter's comments indicate that the coaching staff believes both players have gained enough experience to contribute without feeling overwhelmed. The challenge will be translating that progress into consistent production as the Ravens evaluate their depth throughout the season.",
