Former Colts DE Justin Houston to sign with Ravens

a baseball player is getting ready to hit the ball: While Buckner will have a tough matchup on the interior, the Colts will need Houston to be active and consistent on the edge. If Indy can generate pressure from the top of the pocket and keep Josh Allen somewhat contained with the edge, that will give them a chance to lead in this game. But that starts with Houston showing up and being consistent. The veteran will likely be lining up against Dion Dawkins plenty. Dawkins has allowed the most pressures on the Bills offensive line so there will be opportunities to crash the backfield. But just as Buckner must bring his A-game, the Colts have to have an edge presence on defense if they want to shut down the Bills offense. © AP While Buckner will have a tough matchup on the interior, the Colts will need Houston to be active and consistent on the edge.

Former Indianapolis Colts defensive end Justin Houston is signing a one-year deal with the Baltimore Ravens, per Adam Schefter of ESPN.

Houston has been a free agent all offseason waiting for the right moment to sign. He met with the Ravens earlier this offseason but nothing came of that meeting at the time.

Houston was a solid piece for the Colts during his two seasons in 2019-2020. He led the way with 19.0 sacks over that span but it was time for the Colts to move on this offseason so their younger pass rushers could get some playing time for the upcoming campaign.

Houston now joins the blitz-happy Ravens defense and will see the Colts in Week 5 for a primetime game in Baltimore this season.
