The Ravens’ third-string quarterback orchestrated a 14-play, 80-yard drive in the final two minutes to give the Ravens a thrilling 30-27 comeback victory. To make the drive even more impressive, Renner capped it off with a 1-yard touchdown run of his own for the exclamation point.
The 25-year-old quarterback was swarmed by his teammates and coaches as he ran to the sidelines. He even got a bath from veteran Terrell Suggs, who dumped two water bottles over his head.
“I haven’t gotten a water bath since I was in high school,” Renner joked.
