The Baltimore Ravens defense struggled mightily against the Miami Dolphins in Week 2, allowing Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa to have a career day against them on Sunday.

There were problems in both the secondary and a lack of pass rush for Baltimore this weekend, and they may be looking to bring in a former Pro Bowl defensive end to put more pressure on the quarterback moving forward.

According to NFL insider Jordan Schultz, the Ravens are hosting free agent pass-rusher Jason Pierre-Paul for a visit on Tuesday with hopes that the two sides could come to a deal.

Pierre-Paul previously met with the organization back in June to discuss a deal, but nothing came of the visit.

There now appears to be a significant need in that area for Baltimore, with the Ravens only getting one sack on Tagovailoa despite 50 pass attempts on Sunday. Many around the Ravens’ locker room appear confident that the two sides will eventually come to a deal in the coming days.

Pierre-Paul last played with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, where he had an up-and-down run in his four-year stint. He was able to make a Pro Bowl appearance in 2020 with Tampa Bay but saw his role drastically reduce in a 2021 season that was plagued with injuries.

At the very least, he has proven over the years that he is a reliable commodity who can get pressure on the quarterback, something the Ravens desperately need at the moment.
