“Mark is exactly the type of player we wish to keep as a Raven long term” said Ravens general manager Eric DeCosta.
“He’s competitive, passionate, talented and a leader. We are so excited to have him in Baltimore for the next five years. Congratulations to Mark and his family _ and happy birthday.”
