Tampa could miss time to start his first training camp after having off-season hernia surgery. Ravens rookie CB T. J. Tampa had hernia surgery after minicamp. So Tampa, who is on PUP list, will be sidelined for few more weeks — Jeff Zrebiec (@jeffzrebiec) July 21, 2024 Tampa started every game for the Cyclones the past two seasons and was named to the first-team All-Big 12 squad as a senior after recording 44 tackles, nine passes defended, and a pair of interceptions. Baltimore doubled up at cornerback because the value was too good, selecting Tampa out of Iowa State in the fourth round.

Roquan Smith played a key role in Ravens signing Eddie Jackson
Once Eddie Jackson started getting linked with a move to Baltimore, you instinctively knew that Roquan Smith would factor in the decision. After all, Smith and Jackson were Chicago Bears teammates from 2018 to 2022. And the NFL is just like every other job search process—sometimes, you just have to have the right references. With training camp opening up on Saturday, Smith met the media, and a reporter asked if he could put in a good word for Jackson with General Manager Eric DeCosta. “Yes, I always tell the truth,” he answered. Jackson, who signed a one-year deal, is not the same player as...
