Ravens News 8/1: Letting it Rip

After four straight days of padded practices and with a 99-degree heat index in Owings Mills, the Ravens turned down the tempo of practice but turned up the heat from the defense.

The Ravens practiced third-down situations and against blitzes for much of Wednesday. Despite that, Lamar Jackson thrived, having perhaps his best day of training camp yet.

The most impressive play was when the defense showed a pre-snap blitz with Roquan Smith coming up to the line of scrimmage. Jackson made an adjustment, either changing protection or the play entirely. Jackson seemed to know there was a free safety blitzer coming, and delivered a deep strike to Zay Flowers, who was one-on-one against Kyle Hamilton.
