EDGE Analysis

A roster spot opened up with Matthew Ioannidis (torn biceps) on IR, so Orchard will add depth on the defensive line. Rookie first-rounder Chase Young (groin) could miss this Sunday's game against the Ravens, too. Orchard played five games in 2019 and posted 14 tackles, a sack and a pass breakup.
