Ravens rookie Chandler Rivers embraces Baltimore legacy

Chandler Rivers shares his excitement after being drafted by the Ravens, embracing the franchise’s legacy while knowing he must earn his spot.
Some teams talk about culture. Other teams are a culture. 'Family' is a word that the Baltimore Ravens toss around often.
They do so for a reason, because they are a family. That's been evident for years, but every draft class offers a new reminder. Every rookie arrives with expectations, but just as important, they arrive searching for connection.
And for Chandler Rivers, that connection didn't take long. This is more than a football team. Baltimore has always leaned into something deeper than football.
Call it culture. Hmmm, there's that word again. Call it identity.
