Game week has arrived for John Harbaugh and the Baltimore Ravens. The Ravens returned to practice Friday after three days off. The focus can now turn to next Thursday’s season opener at Kansas City. The Chiefs earned the right to play in that game as the defending Super Bowl champions. They beat the Ravens on the way there in the AFC title game.
Baltimore Ravens head coach Jiohn Harbaugh watches during the second half of a preseason NFL football game against the Green Bay Packers Saturday, Aug. 24, 2024, in Green Bay, Wis. The Ravens returned to practice Friday after three days off, and the focus can now turn to next Thursday’s season opener at Kansas City . The Chiefs earned the right to play in that game as the defending Super Bowl champions.
This is one time a Thursday night game doesn’t force teams to deal with a short week of preparation. In fact, the Ravens can adjust the schedule as much as they want to make this feel like a normal Sunday game. Usually, star quarterback Lamar Jackson addresses the media on Wednesday and coordinators talk Thursday. Now that’s expected to happen Sunday and Monday.
“It’s extremely scary. It was definitely a serious thing,” Andrews said. “For me, it puts things in perspective. Tell the people that you’re around that you love them, and wear your seat belt. You never know what’s going to happen on the road. You never know what things might be thrown at you, what things might come at you, and I’m very blessed and fortunate.”
“It’s big, and having the last game being played against them and not really feeling like myself just yet,” Andrews said. “Body feels healthy. I’ve worked really hard this offseason, had a good camp. Obviously, it’s time to go put the work in this season and just take it play by play, day by day and game by game. If we do that, we’re going to have a lot of success.”
