Still hoping for another chance to play in the NFL, former Ravens running back Ray Rice is venturing into coaching this week as part of the 2016 NFLPA Collegiate Bowl.
Rice is coaching the running backs along with fellow Ravens running back Priest Holmes for Mike Martz’s National Team. The all-star game for draft-eligible college players will take place in Carson, Calif. on Saturday afternoon.
Turning 29 later this week, Rice hasn’t played since his contract was terminated by the Ravens and he was suspended indefinitely by the NFL on Sept. 8, 2014, the same day a video was released of him striking his then-fiancée, Janay Palmer, in an Atlantic City casino earlier that year. Since Rice had already been suspended two games by NFL commissioner Roger Goodell, his indefinite suspension was overturned in late November of that year, but no team has reportedly given Rice even as much as a tryout the last two seasons.
In various interviews, Rice has expressed a desire to mentor and advise younger players in hopes that they’ll avoid the same mistakes he made, and this appears to be a forum in which he can do that for NFL hopefuls.

Longtime ESPNer Kenny Mayne checks in for another round of tales of wiffle ball with Ken Griffey, podcasts with the other Manning and still being pissed off about the Sonics (and Pilots) departure from Seattle.

These milestones continue to add up as the 25th anniversary of the Baltimore Ravens' Super Bowl XXXV win is coming later this month and Nestor is catching up with many of the Purple Reign legacies about life – on and off the field – as we celebrate the night we all felt the civic pride of that first miracle in Tampa. Reflections here with the man who coached Jamal Lewis, Priest Holmes, Sam Gash and Femi Ayanbadejo a quarter of a century ago.

Firing the head coach and changing leadership will certainly create an interesting offseason in Owings Mills. No one covers the Xs and Os of the NFL like Mike Tanier of Too Deep Zone. The one-time geometry teacher of Joe Flacco joins Nestor to discuss the depth and salary cap numbers of the Baltimore Ravens roster and the structural changes Eric DeCosta will need even after Steve Bisciotti finds a new captain to lead Lamar Jackson.
