The ties between Dave Lapham In The Trenches and the voice of the Baltimore Ravens, Gerry Sandusky, run deep in the football world.

Sandusky's father, John Sandusky, played for Cincinnati Bengals founder and former head coach Paul Brown with the Cleveland Browns. In contrast, Dave Lapham was coached by the elder Sandusky in an all-star game when he came out of Syracuse University before being drafted by Paul Brown and the Bengals in the 1974 NFL Draft.

Gerry Sandusky became the radio play-by-play man in 2006 and brings vast knowledge about the 2022 Ravens squad the Bengals will face for a third time this season when the two match up on Sunday night in Wild Card Playoff action in front of a national audience.

Don't miss this exclusive one-on-one with Gerry as he returns to In The Trenches, presented by First Star Logistics, to discuss what is happening with Lamar Jackson as the Ravens star quarterback will be out another week. Is Jackson's injury more severe than previously thought? Is Jackson motivated to stay out without a new contract and watch the Ravens sign newly acquired linebacker Roquan Smith to a deal making him the highest-paid off-the-ball linebacker in the NFL?

Sandusky gives his thoughts and looks at what fans should expect from both teams in another major AFC North battle with playoff dreams on the line.
