Baltimore Ravens' Calais Campbell donates $30K to help change Denver school from Rebels to Ravens

When Baltimore defensive end Calais Campbell plays in his hometown of Denver this season, his team won't be the only Ravens in the Mile High City.

Campbell donated $30,000 to his alma mater, South High School in Denver, to help with the process of switching its nickname from the Rebels to the Ravens. The money will aid in new uniforms, gym flooring and signage throughout the school.

"It was time to make a change and what it represents," Campbell told ESPN.

The high school's nickname had been Rebels for nearly a century, since the school was founded in 1926.
