Retired Ravens linebacker Ray Lewis nominated for 2016 College Football Hall of Fame class

Retired former Ravens inside linebacker Ray Lewis has been nominated again for the College Football Hall of Fame. He was nominated for induction last year, but wasn't selected.

Lewis is a former University of Miami consensus All-American and a runner-up for the Dick Butkus award -- given to the nation's top linebacker. He was a two-time All-Big East Conference selection and ranks sixth all-time in school history with 388 tackles.

Retired since after the Ravens' Super Bowl XLVII victory over the San Francisco 49ers, Lewis was a two-time NFL Defensive Player of the Year, a 13-time Pro Bowl selection and the Most Valuable Player of Super Bowl XXXV, when the Ravens defeated the New York Giants.
