Ravens news: Multiple Baltimore players voice out major health concerns

The latest players who voiced out their concerns before the opening of the upcoming season came from the AFC North powerhouse Baltimore Ravens. Like the majority of the NFL players, they also want the league to ensure the safety of everyone involved.

Baltimore Ravens cornerback Tavon Young made sure his sentiment was heard on Twitter:

We need the NFL to make sure we are safe and the people around us are safe. Missed last year because of injury and don’t want another missed season because of safety issues #WeWanttoPlay

All-Pro kicker Justin Tucker also echoed his teammate's words:

We need answers and we need them now. We need to know that the @NFL is doing everything in its power to ensure the health and safety of the players. Simply put, the @NFL must heed the advice of its own medical experts if we are to play a full season. #WeWantToPlay

Ravens offensive tackle Orlando Brown Jr., wide receiver Willie Snead IV, and quarterback Robert Griffin III also showed their disappointment in the way health protocols are being heeded by the league as of the moment. The league is rumored to neglect the advice of health experts regarding the safety protocols to be set.
