There are certain players who just seem to be magnets for the football.
Ravens rookie cornerback Tavon Young is looking like that kind of player, which has made the defense’s smallest player emerge in the NFL’s No. 1-ranked unit.
In the last three games, Young has recorded a blocked field goal recovery that he returned more than 60 yards for two points in Cleveland, a critical fourth-quarter interception in Jacksonville and a fumble recovery against the Raiders.
Three games, three times with the football in his hands. That’s not bad for any defensive player, let alone a fourth-round pick out of Temple.
