History

Historical Context

In 1999 the Baltimore Ravens captured Super Bowl XXXV, beating the New York Giants 34–7 behind a dominant defense and reliable kicking. The franchise’s special-teams focus persisted, illustrated by rookie Justin Tucker’s 90.9% field-goal rate in 2012 and a costly missed 32-yard attempt by Billy Cundiff in the 2001 AFC Championship. Adding 26-year-old Jake Moody to the practice squad continues that long-standing strategy.
