The Ravens have yet to pick up the 2020 first-round pick’s fifth-year option and will have to make a decision on whether or not to do so by next Monday. After trading their second-round pick for inside linebacker Roquan Smith during the 2022 season, Queen’s future with the team has been a topic of speculation despite a strong third season.
