One of the late season players for the Ravens to show up and become a fan favorite, Rashaan Melvin had his season derailed by a shoulder injury that required offseason surgery. His bad luck continued as his father , James Melvin, died in February following a long battle with prostate cancer according to Aaron Wilson.
I'm doing pretty good, my family is strong. We're positive. We believe in God. We just take it as it comes. We're strong-faith people.
Back in January before the Ravens' playoff game, James Melvin told the Baltimore Sun that he was extremely proud of his son.
