The Baltimore Ravens inducted linebacker Ray Lewis into their Ring of Honor at the beginning of last season. This season they’ll induct retired tight end Todd Heap.

“I’m not speechless too often, but it was pretty cool to hear that from our owner,” Heap said, via the team’s website. “He’s a good man that knows how to run things the right way and has really put together a first class organization.”

Heap added: “It’s pretty surreal. There are a lot of special players in Ravens history. It’s going to be cool to be listed among them. You never know how deserving it is, but I was pumped and I think it’s going to be cool for years to come.”

Unfortunately his career, which spanned 12 seasons, 10 of which were in Baltimore, didn’t include either Super Bowl campaign from the team.
