How Good Is Michael Pierce?

For his second tenure with the franchise in his career, the Ravens invited Pierce back. He joined as an undrafted free agent with Baltimore in 2016 and played for the Ravens for four years before joining the Minnesota Vikings after signing his rookie contract.



Pierce received an overall rating of 88 thanks to his 94 strength rating, 91 impact blocking rating, and 90 block shedding rating. The fact that Aaron Donald made the “99 clubs” and is the highest-ranked defensive tackle in Madden NFL 23 is not a surprise to anyone.

Pierce has 171 total tackles, 6.5 sacks, four fumble recoveries, and one forced fumble in 68 games across his first five NFL seasons.
