On Monday,\u00a0Baltimore Ravens\u00a0left tackle Ronnie Stanley joined media via Zoom to talk about re-signing with the Ravens on\u00a0a three-year, $60 million deal. Below are the highlights from the\u00a0press conference.<\/p>\n

\n

On why Stanley re-signed with the Ravens prior to reaching free agency with the speculation of an impending bidding war:<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cI think it just goes back to the fact that they drafted me straight out of college. Took a chance on me. So, I\u2019m always going to give them first dibs when it comes to things like that, out of respect.\u201d<\/p>\n

On if he was ever curious about going elsewhere:<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cYeah, I was very open to whatever was going to happen. I knew the cap situation we were in and how many players we need to pay \u2014 current and future with the younger guys. So, I knew it wasn\u2019t going to be like a personal thing. So, going into it I was kind of open to what was going to happen. Ended up working for the best.\u201d<\/p>\n

On how important legacy is to him and playing in one place for his whole career:<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cThat\u2019s a good question because that definitely gets brought up to me a lot, especially going into my tenth year and all of them are going to be in Baltimore. That\u2019s something that, ever growing up \u2014 I never even \u2014 that wasn\u2019t even like a goal of mine. That wasn\u2019t something I ever thought about. But that being said, it actually happening, I\u2019m realizing how rare of a thing that is and I think it\u2019s a really cool thing to be able to spend ten years of my career plus with the same team that I got drafted with. I don\u2019t know the percentages of things like that happening but I think that\u2019s a really cool thing. I\u2019m happy and appreciative that I could be one of those players that experience that.\u201d<\/p>\n

On if he kept in mind the Ravens\u2019 cap situation and what they needed to do to build the roster as they were re-signing him:<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cYeah, that\u2019s definitely something that crosses my mind but I don\u2019t think that was the main driver for it all. I knew I was going to give Baltimore the best bargain that I would offer to any other team. But that being said I still wanted to be happy with what I\u2019m making and make sure I\u2019m getting the value that I feel like I deserve just from the job description and the things that go into what my job has to do. I think the deal was a good balance that could help the team and something I\u2019m still happy with.\u201d<\/p>\n

On if there\u2019s a feeling of unfinished business:<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cFor sure. I don\u2019t think there\u2019s \u2014 we\u2019ve broken so many records the last however many years and I don\u2019t think we care about it, to be honest. Especially the guys that have been here. I think the only thing we really care about is winning a\u00a0Super Bowl<\/a>. All that other stuff, for sure is nice and all, but yeah, definitely, unfinished business. I don\u2019t think any one is really happy.\u201d<\/p>\n

On if re-signing with the Ravens was a factor with his relationship with Lamar [Jackson] and how the offense has been built around him and if he spoke to Jackson before or after re-signing:<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cFirst of all, my decision to come back, I think the players for sure had the biggest role to do. The locker room and the type of players that we have, including Lamar. I was talking to Lamar a lot, but not about contracts. Me and Lamar, we talk all the time but he never really brings that stuff up. I never really brought that stuff up to him when he was going through his deal. I think we just talk more like brothers. We talked through the whole process, not once about contracts. But the players are definitely the biggest driver of why I like being in Baltimore.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
