The Ravens selected Suggs as the 10th overall pick in the 2003 NFL Draft, and he immediately made an impact with the team.
Throughout his time in Baltimore, he proved himself as a cornerstone of the Ravens’ defense, helping them secure a Super Bowl championship in 2012.
Suggs is not only a two-time Super Bowl champion, one of which came with the Chiefs, he’s also a two-time All-Pro selection and a seven-time Pro-Bowler, solidifying his place in NFL history.
One of Suggs’ most remarkable achievements is his status as the all-time leader in tackles for loss, with an astounding 202 to his name. His closest competitor in this category is the future Hall of Famer, defensive lineman J.J. Watt, with 195 tackles for loss.
The upcoming induction into the Ravens’ Ring of Honor serves as a fitting tribute to Terrell Suggs’ exceptional career and enduring legacy in the world of football.
