Ravens DL Calais Campbell named AFC Special Teams Player of the Week for Week 15

The Baltimore Ravens beat the Pittsburgh Steelers 16-14 on Sunday in Week 15 at Acrisure Stadium, formerly known as Heinz Field.  In the win, one special teams play had a major impact on the outcome of the game, as Baltimore defensive lineman Calais Campbell blocked a field goal in the fourth quarter of the contest.

Since Baltimore would end up winning by the final score of 16-14, Campbell’s blocked field goal was essentially the difference in the contest, saving three points in a two-point win. To honor his performance, Campbell was named the AFC Special Teams Player of the Week for Week 15, his first-ever time winning the award.

Campbell returned to the Ravens on a two-year deal this past offseason, and it’s showing that he might be able to play a few more season if he so chooses with his production he’s had so far. He has been a high impact player for the majority of his NFL career, and has been a key cog on Baltimore’s 2022 defensive unit.
