Buzz Continues Growing for Lane
Seemingly every team has rookies or unheralded players who shine in training camp, grabbing the attention of reporters and exciting the fan base. It’s an annual tradition.
It’s easy to get caught up in the hype, but more often than not, camp darlings are exactly that. Flashing in the summer doesn’t necessarily mean a player will have success in the regular season. In some cases, they won’t even make the 53-man roster.
It feels different with Lane, who has been a human highlight reel in practice.
“Baltimore’s rookie wide receiver has dominated headlines, and the fanbase is insatiable for content of his one-handed practice catches because Lane, without having played a single snap in an NFL game, represents something Baltimore has been starved of: a wiry homegrown receiver with endless range,” Cohn wrote.
