Zach Orr breaks silence on job security ahead of Ravens bye week

Zach Orr was asked about the rumors surrounding his possible exit from the Baltimore Ravens, and without hesitation, he said he’s not worried about it — a stance even head coach John Harbaugh echoed, saying this is a time for the team to stay more united than ever.

Jamison Hensley shared a video on X showing Orr’s response and reported: “Ravens DC Zach Orr said he’s not concerned about his job security with the bye week looming after Sunday’s game against the Rams.”

For Orr, the only thing that matters is Sunday’s game against the Rams. “I’m not worried about what happens,” Orr said, clarifying his singular focus: “I’m worried about finding a way to win and stop a high-powered offense.”

Regarding the recent trade of Oweh, Orr accepted it as a necessity of the sport: “It’s part of the business.” He then laid out the team’s objective: “We just have to find ways to generate more pass rush. We have to be more creative. We have to execute better.”

Todd Monken Also Assumes Blame

Defensive Coordinator Zach Orr was not the only one to speak honestly about the Ravens’ situation and their future; Offensive Coordinator Todd Monken also sent a clear message, making it known that the struggles are a collective issue, not just one unit’s fault.

“We’ve got ourselves in a little bit of a rut. It’s not just the offensive line. It’s us as a whole,” Monken said, urging everyone to improve so the team can start winning: “We’re better than that. We’ve got to go out and show it.”
