“Thank you to Eric, Harbs and the Ravens for placing their faith in me and to continue to build upon what we’re building here. I think we’re trending in the right direction as a team," kicker Justin Tucker after signing his four-year, $23 million extension Wednesday.
The #Steelers thought paying 37-year-old Big Ben $63M over two years was a good idea, in the offseason following his league-leading 16 interceptions.
The standard is the standard.

What could go wrong?
Just talked to a Redskins source who told me Dan Snyder has "taken over the first round of the draft."
The last time that happened the Redskins traded two future No. 1's and a No. 2 to move up for Robert Griffin.

DeCosta said that it's up to Yanda to address his future but he said that Yanda wasn't comfortable entering last year of his deal and team wasn't comfortable with that either.
"He's the best kicker in the league. If you agree to that, it's pretty easy to get a deal done."
DeCosta said Marshal Yanda didn't like the idea of going into the last year of his contract. Any decisions on how much longer he'll actually play is up to him. #Ravens
Ravens GM Eric DeCosta said the one-year extension with guard Marshal Yanda doesn't guarantee he'll play in 2020 but added, "That's Marshal's decision. He didn't like the idea of him going into the final year of his deal, and we didn't either."
DeCosta said Tucker deal came together pretty fast. Said team had a timeframe before the draft that they wanted to get deal.
"Number one, he's the best kicker in the league. IF you agree with that, it's pretty easy to get a deal done. I'm not a big believer in wasting time."
DeCosta said the Tucker extension come together "pretty fast." Said it's easy to get a deal done when you know he's the best in the league. #Ravens

Tucker said it was almost "unsettling" how great the fan support was after he missed the extra point against New Orleans compared to what he anticipated. Really spoke to how great the fan base is. #Ravens
Tucker said fan reaction after his missed extra point this past year was "unsettling. "I was bracing myself for the worst and what I got was an outpouring of support," he said.
Well, good, that means that, along with the final details on Tucker's extension, we will finally be getting the details of Yanda's extension in the next couple of days.
DeCosta: "We hate to lose good players. This offseason, it happened too many times. Today was great, we had Justin up in my office signing his contract and two hours later, we had Marshal [Yanda] up in my office signing his contract. Two of our great players."
