Jaire Alexander offers his love letter to the Baltimore Ravens organization, the fans, and Charm City.
Being a man means that, at some point, one must put away all of the childish things. The body matures. So does the mind. You learn a lot. You smell the roses. You find yourself saying ‘I appreciate you’ and ‘I love you’ more often.
If you choose to take your time in learning that, you may find yourself sleeping on the couch instead of in the bedroom. Don’t believe that? Try it! Continue responding to your wife’s declarations of love with ‘Me too,’ and see what happens. As we age, we learn. At least, we should. We grow, and a new Baltimore Ravens star, Jaire Alexander, enters year eight. He seems thankful for a new opportunity, and wasted no time letting anyone who will listen know that he’s in love.
“I’m in love. What can I say? The weather’s great. The fans are great. I mean, the city’s great! So, I think I’m in a great place”.
Those were the words of the now 28-year-old, former All-Pro cornerback during a seven-minute chat with the Baltimore media. Most of you have heard this story several times now. That chapter with the Green Bay Packers is closed, and after Lamar Jackson’s public plea to Eric DeCosta, the Ravens GM signed Jackson’s former collegiate teammate.
Wouldn’t you know it? Action Jackson was the first person to greet him. It’s still hard to believe, though. Jaire Alexander is a Raven! So is DeAndre Hopkins!
Alexander says he and his friend, Lamar Jackson, talked about this opportunity to team up at the NFL level. The talented DB thinks he’ll bring the energy and the juice. Frankly, we can’t wait to see it.
