Baltimore Beat Down · Jul 27, 2017
A personal thank you to John Urschel
Last season, I attended my first training camp. I flew across the country, from Colorado to the east coast, to become closer to the Baltimore Ravens. I was lucky enough to receive media access to the Baltimore Ravens facilities.
It’s intimidating, finally seeing these players in person.
My first day at camp, I was fresh to the scene and didn’t understand how this all worked. In smooth fashion, I stood in Terrell Suggs way of the podium. Suggs said, “Excuse me,” as he put his hand on my shoulder to wade through the crop of reporters, while I picked the worst place to stand. Great start, right?
I remember thinking, “I’m just some kid from Wyoming, how did I make it this far?”
