“At the end of the day, football is football. We run similar stuff, but it’s just a lot different verbiage. But also we are running only 10% of the plays we’ll run in season, so there’s a lot more to learn” Linderbaum said.
Linderbaum was the 25th overall pick in the first round of last month’s draft.
Baltimore finished last season 8-9, but star quarterback Lamar Jackson missed the final portion of the team’s regular season.
