Ray Lewis
As told to Glenn Clark
Ray Lewis was a linebacker for the Ravens from 1996-2012. He was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 2018.
Ed comes in in 2002. We go and do some very, very special things, but I ask him as a Hurricane and a new teammate, "Look, brother, how far do you want to go with this thing? How great are you trying to be? How do you want to do this?" And he was like, "Man, I'm in." I'll never forget ... I convinced him to go to Jamaica. Me, him, Rohan Marley and Monte Sanders, who was my trainer, we got on the plane. I'm telling you, we enjoyed each other every step of the way.
