Lamar Jackson’s new weapon that the Ravens just drafted is already talking about retirement

The 2024 NFL Draft is not that far in the rearview mirror and one new member of the Baltimore Ravens organization already has the idea of retirement on his mind.

It is apparent that the organization and city of Baltimore have already had an impact on former North Carolina and Kent State standout wide receiver Devontez Walker.

"I'm very hopeful. Baltimore is a great organization to be a part of," Walker said when asked if he wanted to make Baltimore home. "From what I've seen with the facilities and how everybody is around here; everybody loves it here. This is somewhere I wouldn't mind retiring. It's been great these past two [or] three days. This is somewhere I definitely want to be."

The Ravens spent a fourth-round pick on Walker to draft him out of North Carolina. He comes to Baltimore as another weapon for Lamar Jackson and a wideout that they can develop in their system.

Walker will have a good chance to make an impact as a rookie with his 4.3 40-yard dash speed at 6-foot-2. Walker is a wide receiver who can win downfield and make a defense pay if he gets in space with the football in his hands.

Baltimore needs to develop another starting wideout with Zay Flowers to take pressure off of tight end Mark Andrews. That guy just may be Walker and he wants to be there.
