The Baltimore Ravens signed safety Marcus Williams to a five-year, $70 million contract on the second day of free agency. He marks their biggest free agent signings to date out of the 2022 class, and the five-year veteran should provide a ballhawking presence to the back end of Baltimore’s secondary. - When Williams was asked about what some of the reasons were as to why he chose to sign with the Ravens, the safety went into detail about multiple aspects of the organization that he felt were right for him. Some of those reasons included the culture as well as the success the franchise has had. - “Like I said earlier, it’s just the culture here. It’s about the family environment that they already said that they have. You’ve seen over the years the type of success they’ve had and the type of guys they bring in – hardworking guys, ready to work – and that’s the type of person I am. I feel like I fit, because I’m always ready to compete no matter what. Every day is an opportunity to compete and to get better. There’s always somebody else trying to get to where you’re at, so for me – that’s what I do – I have to compete. Somebody is trying to take my spot. I mean, I don’t have a spot right now. I’m coming in and competing just like everybody else – that’s my mentality.” - - - - - - - - - - - - Email - - - - - Sign up - - - - - - - - Like this article? - Sign up for the Ravens Wire email newsletter to get our top stories in your inbox every morning - - - - An error has occured - - - Please re-enter your email address. - - - - - - Thanks for signing up! - - - You'll now receive the top Ravens Wire stories each day directly in your inbox.
