Quote:The Ravens’ rising second-year cornerback is in critical condition at Jackson Memorial Hospital in Miami.

Ravens cornerback Tray Walker is in critical condition after a serious motorcycle accident in Southeast Florida.
Walker, a 2015 fourth-round pick, is at the Jackson Memorial Hospital in Miami.

“Oh my God,” Head Coach John Harbaugh said. “This is devastating news. Our prayers and hopes are with Tray and his family tonight.”

Walker, 23, attended Miami Northwestern High School and played his college football at small-school Texas Southern.

The 6-foot-2, 199-pounder was a developmental player for the Ravens last season. Walker played in eight games and recorded one solo tackle from scrimmage. He mostly competed on special teams.

Damn. Speedy recovery.

another reason why a "no motorcycle clause" should be in contracts

This^^^^^^^

I didn't know who he was.  I heard he was injured near Miami, and assumed he was a Dolphin.  Bengals fans can relate to this kind of thing; since we lost one of ours years ago.

Damn.

No lights on bike, no helmet, dark clothes.

Makes these things even sadder when they were more than likely very preventable. Feel for the people he's left behind.

Time to come together as division rivals and mourn the loss of one our fellow teams players. Sucks to see. I really didn't know him. Could one of our Ravens compatriots tell me more about him?

Just terrible. Praying for his family, so young too.

I read he was more a special teams guy.  Had one tackle all season or something.

Just a damn shame when something stupid like this happens.

Horrible. RIP

Very sad story

R.I.P.

"OWINGS MILLS, Md. -- There is a growing block of lockers at the Baltimore Ravens facility that not only represents the team's most significant injuries, but a potential curse, according to the players.

From left to right, there are the lockers of Terrell Suggs, Steve Smith Sr., Breshad Perriman, Justin Forsett and Chris Canty. All of these players have been placed on season-ending injured reserve, and their placement in the locker room is the exact order each player has been placed on IR.

The next in line is rookie cornerback Tray Walker, whose unfavorable spot in the locker room hasn't gone unnoticed.

"Someone asked me if I wanted to move my locker," Walker said. "We're going to knock on all of this wood in here and pray and hope nothing happens."

Players started realizing this painful trend last month, and Canty was asked about it after Forsett broke his arm.

"I'm going to stay prayed up," Canty said at the time. On Sunday, Canty tore his pectoral muscle and is out for the season.

While looking at the five empty lockers beside him, Walker said he's not a superstitious person.

"You got to do what you got to do to take care of your body," Walker said. "You can't escape from injuries. If it's meant to be, it's meant to be. If not, thank God."

Walker, a fourth-round pick, could see his most extensive playing time on defense Sunday as the Ravens look to their young cornerbacks in the final three games of the season. He has been described as raw in terms of technique and knowledge of the game because he is coming from a small-school program at Texas Southern.

“Tray has been up and down,” Harbaugh said. “There are moments you see his talent and he shines. There’s nobody more coachable than Tray. He’s a sponge; he wants to learn. Tray’s issue is he has a lot to learn."

This is a big game for Walker personally as well. His mother is flying to Baltimore, and she's never seen him play in an NFL game.

"They tell me to be ready because my name could be called at any time," Walker said. "I'm very excited. Just to show the crowd and the team what I can do on the field."

Wow.

Rip.

My condolences to the team, family and fans.

Wow, I had missed the update on this, sad to hear. Condolences and thoughts and prayers to those left behind.

Wonder who has the next locker in line???
