The Baltimore Ravenscompleted a perfect preseason with their most dominant performance of the summer, defeating the Washington Commanders 41-3 at M&T Bank Stadium. Baltimore produced 456 yards, allowed 177 and held Washington to one conversion on 12 third-down attempts. Several roster hopefuls delivered performances worthy of recognition.
Here are seven game balls from the preseason finale.
Joe Fagnano
Fagnano directed the offense with the control of a quarterback who has become comfortable in the system. He completed 19 of 27 passes for 162 yards and a touchdown, scored on a 1-yard sneak and finished with a 98.1 rating.
His final preseason line—56-of-75 for 509 yards, three touchdowns and one interception—made this game ball a reward for both Friday's performance and a consistently productive summer.
Chris Moore
Moore caught all three of his targets for 54 yards on the opening drive. His 25-yard touchdown required concentration through contact and gave Baltimore an early lead after Minter successfully challenged the original ruling.
Adam Randall
Randall's 70 yards from scrimmage came on only eight touches. He rushed for 25 yards and caught three passes for 45, showing the receiving value that could separate him in the RB3 competition.
Kaimon Rucker
Rucker was disruptive throughout the second half, finishing with six tackles, two tackles for loss, one sack and another quarterback hit. His repeated pressures made him difficult to ignore in the competition for the final outside linebacker position.
Adisa Isaac
Isaac matched Rucker's production with six tackles, a tackle for loss and a fourth-down sack. He also contributed on special teams, reminding the Ravens of the traits that made him a third-round selection.
Robert Longerbeam
Longerbeam made five tackles, including four solo stops, and played well against the screen game. Baltimore's cornerbacks have been one of the deepest groups throughout camp, and Longerbeam completed his audition with another steady performance.
The reserve offensive line
One game ball can be divided among the entire group. Baltimore rushed for 195 yards, averaged 6.5 yards per carry and did not allow a sack.
The line made life easier for Huntley, Fagnano and Reed while allowing four different running backs to produce at least one gain of 11 yards. It was a complete performance from a unit that may have more depth than it did a year ago.
