The headwear hex is undoubtedly a mistake, as it’s unlikely that any fan from either Baltimore or Pittsburgh would be caught dead wearing it. Since the Ravens entered the league in 1996, their series with the Steelers has been one of the NFL’s most tightly-contested matchups and has, more often than not, altered the fate of the AFC North division.
Pittsburgh took the first half of the latest yearly couple by a 17-10 final on Oct. 8. The two teams will do battle in Baltimore during the final week of the regular season in January.
OCT 23 RAVENS ‘SPOKE TO’ NDAMUKONG SUH ABOUT NFL RETURN Ndamukong Suh appears to be plotting an NFL return and the Baltimore Ravens appear interested in hosting.
While partaking in Sky Sports’ NFL coverage on Sunday … shortly after the Ravens dismantled the Detroit Lions by a 38-6 final … Suh revealed that Baltimore management called him about a potential 14th NFL season.
“Last week it was the Ravens that spoke to me, so they seem to be interested and played great today,” Suh said. “You never know. We’ll see when we get back to the States, huddle up with the wife and family, get settled, and keep training.”
“Where’s the right fit? Where’s the right opportunity? Where can I go and add value? I don’t just want to sit there and watch other guys be successful,” Suh said. “Have options, that’s the key, and make decisions from there.”
Suh, 36, spent the latter half of last season with the Philadelphia Eagles, picking up 10 tackles and a sack and appearing in all three games of the team’s NFC title run.
OCT 19 INTERNATIONAL FLAGS You’ll see some changes to some NFL helmets around the league for Weeks 7 and 8. Hundreds of players will add flag decals to their helmets representing the countries of their heritage.
The league has announced more than 330 players have committed to participate, representing 72 nations, with Nigeria being the most-represented foreign country, with 80 players committing to wear the Nigerian flag.
OCT 17 RAVENS ADD SUPER BOWL CHAMP ANDREW ADAMS Per Ian Rapoport of NFL Network, the Baltimore Ravens are set to add safety Andrew Adams to their practice squad and a “quick elevation” could be in store considering the team’s injury situation: during their 24-16 win over Tennessee in London, the Ravens lost Marcus Williams to a hamstring issue.
Adams, 30, has built a lengthy NFL career since emerging as an undrafted free agent out of Connecticut in 2016. He earned a Super Bowl ring after the 2020 season with Tampa Bay and played 13 games (11 starts) with the aforementioned Tennessee Titans last season.
In a presumed corresponding move to make room for Adams, the Ravens released veteran running back Kenyan Drake from the practice squad, per the team’s official site.
