OWINGS MILLS — The Baltimore Ravens’ six-week vacation ends late next month when the defending AFC North champions report to Westminster for their annual training camp.
It will be a busy period at McDaniel College with 27 practices scheduled over the course of the 20-day camp, including a scrimmage against the Washington Redskins at M&T Bank Stadium on Aug. 4.
The Ravens report to the team hotel July 29 for an afternoon team meeting followed by an 8:15 a.m. practice the following morning to officially launch camp. Camp is scheduled to break Aug. 18 when the team will return to its Owings Mills training complex.
“We’ve had a productive offseason, our players are in shape and we’ll hit the ground running on July 30,” Ravens coach Brian Billick said in a statement. “Coming off a 13-3 season, a lot is expected of us. That’s good, because we expect a lot of ourselves. We’re excited about and prepared for a challenging season.”
All of the practices are open to the general public except Aug. 6.
