If you don’t watch much football, like myself, you may know the Ravens for Lamar Jackson. Jackson is the Ravens QB and has been on the team since 2018. Jackson states he is, “Ready for whatever.” Jackson is in the top QB’s this NFL season.
Another player everyone is familiar with is Odell Beckham Jr. He is the Ravens wide receiver. OBJ signed with the Ravens in 2023, after recovering from a torn ACL.
The Ravens were last in the Super Bowl in 2013. They played the 49ers, who are actually in the playoffs this season. In 2013, the 49ers got their first Super Bowl loss in franchise history. Who knows, maybe they will both be in the Super Bowl for 2024!
Best of luck to the Baltimore Ravens, and all the other teams still in!
