Baltimore Ravens DT Justin Madubuike Is All About His Mindset

Baltimore Ravens defensive tackle Justin Madubuike broke down his performance against the Los Angeles Rams.

The Baltimore Ravens defeated the Los Angeles Rams in a rainy, 37-31 overtime thriller on Sunday at M&T Bank Stadium as they continue to push for the one seed in the AFC. 

In the win, defensive tackle Justin Madubuike put up yet another great performance despite the weather, adding to his already impressive season. 

"I love the rain," Madubuike said. "I love the rain, honestly any weather for me, it don't matter. As long as I got my boys with me, some food in my belly and some Gatorade, I'm good. So it's all about the mindset, you know what I mean. No matter what's going on on the outside, it's all about your mindset and your focus, so that's just my take on it."

Madubuike recorded seven tackles, five of which were solo, one sack, one tackle for loss and five quarterback hits in the win.

To say that Madubuike is having a breakout season would be a bit of an understatement. The 26-year-old defensive tackle has tallied 44 tackles, 11.0 sacks, 11 tackles for loss, 26 quarterback hits and one forced fumble this year, all of which are career-highs.

With his sack of Matthew Stafford in the first quarter of the game, Madubuike had reached 10-straight games with at least half a sack. He is also the first Ravens player to record at least 10 sacks in a season since future Hall of Famer Terrell Suggs did it in 2017.
