The Baltimore Ravens have always done a great job of helping people understand their players off of the field. While the goal of the franchise is to win football games, knowing about the personalities of the players who suit up on Sundays is always nice. While they’re athletes, they’re also people too, and that’s an important thing that some people will occasionally forget. Baltimore prides themselves on having a great on-field product, but also a great culture off of the field, and the people that the Ravens bring into their organization play a key part in that.
Baltimore recently put out a video featuring their 2021 draft class where they were asked to guess some items that were popular in the ’90s. The Ravens’ rookies were born anywhere from 1997-1999, so a few of them had a bit of trouble figuring out what some of the things were.
Get ready to feel old…

Old iPods, VHS tapes, CD players and more were a few of the things that some of the Baltimore 2021 draft class weren’t able to figure out. It seemed like guard Ben Cleveland knew everything he was handed, recalling stories about how he would use each item during his childhood. However, most of the other rookies didn’t look like they knew what they were looking at, although some did have a general idea.
As the season continues to ramp up, there should be more of these kinds of videos made by the team. The Ravens’ social department always does a phenominal job of giving a glimpse into the players’ personalities, something that is very refreshing and fun to learn about.
