The 2023 Baltimore Beatdown Awards continue after our second nominees were announced on Wednesday for Special Teams Player of the Year.
The Baltimore Ravens didn’t have nearly as impactful of a rookie class in 2023 as they did in 2022 with the likes of Kyle Hamilton, Tyler Linderbaum, Isaiah Likely, Travis Jones, and Jordan Stout — who were either day 1 starters or key rotational pieces. However, they still had a few first-year pros who made significant and impressive contributions.
