COACH HARBAUGH SAYS ON HIS PREVAILING MESSAGE TO THE TEAM TO BEGIN 2024 CAMP:
“Vision and standards – the ability to meet the standard and raise the standard, and the vision that we’re working into a lot of different areas. I've talked to guys individually and continue to do that about their vision. It’s amazing how aligned we are, person-to-person. As a coach, you look for that.”

QUICK HITS / 2023 RECAP ✗ The Baltimore Ravens open their 29th preseason by hosting the
Philadelphia Eagles at M&T Bank Stadium on Friday, Aug. 9 (7:30 p.m.). The Ravens are 71-34 in all-time preseason play, posting a 44-14 mark under head coach John Harbaugh, who enters his 17th season at the helm in Baltimore.
INJURY UPDATE

FORMER NFL PLAYER & CURRENT ESPN ANALYST DAMIEN WOODY:
”I think the Baltimore Ravens have the team that can represent the AFC in the Super Bowl. Lamar Jackson, two-time league MVP, is one of the most electrifying players that we have in our game. They got the skill position players. Obviously, they added Derrick Henry in the backfield – that's going to be thunder to Lamar Jackson's lightning."
✗ In 2023, the Ravens tallied an NFL-record 10 victories vs. teams that finished with a winning record, and they posted six wins vs. playoff teams. Baltimore also ranked No. 1 in the NFL in both point differential (+203) and turnover margin (+12, tied w/ NYG).
