It’s not often that a practice squad signing comes to town and people already know about his sock collection.
But that’s the case with new Ravens cornerback Charles James, who arrived in Baltimore as a popular player thanks to his prominence in this season of HBO’s “Hard Knocks.” James was a fan favorite on this year’s show, which had an all-access pass to training camp with the Houston Texans.
Hard Knocks featured James’ affinity for wild socks, his efforts to play in all three phases of the game, and some interesting pre-game conversations.
