SI's Best Shots From Ravens Camp

Joe Flacco

Last season, Joe Flacco quickly went from unknown to one of the top rookie quarterbacks in the league.

Ray Rice has been taking the majority of first team snaps during camp.

Mark Clayton

After tweaking a hamstring in practice, Mark Clayton told the <i> Baltimore Sun </i> he could be out for 'a couple of weeks'.

Mark Clayton

Clayton's not the only Raven to make it on the early IR list -- offensive tackle Adam Terry is headed there too.

Troy Smith

Backup quarterback Troy Smith has been taking some plays as wide receiver.

With former defensive coordinator Rex Ryan now the Jets' head coach, Terrell Suggs told SI's Peter King he's looking forward to working with new defensive coordinator Greg Mattison.

Ed Reed

The Ravens are bringing back defensive veterans Ray Lewis and Ed Reed, while losing Bart Scott to the Jets.

The Ravens have their first preseason game against the neighboring Redskins on Aug. 13.

Traditionally vaunted for their defense, the Ravens are hoping Flacco and the offense can start being equally competitive.

The Ravens lost to rival Pittsburgh in the conference finals last season.

Intensity in the Ravens camp is picking up.

John Beck

John Beck came to the Ravens after two seasons with the Dolphins as another backup option for Flacco.

Jason Cook

Jason Cook joins a rookie class that includes first-round draft pick Michael Oher, whose rise from poverty to Ole Miss was chronicled in <i> The Blind Side</i>.
