While the Baltimore Ravens final pre-season game at the Atlanta Falcons will not mean much to most of the players, there will be some that will be fighting for their NFL careers and their performance tonight will go a long way to making the difference between playing professional football and browsing the help-wanted ads to see where their next career will be.
The Ravens are a veteran team, which is good for fans that want to see their team go deep into the post-season this year, but that also means the opportunities to crack the final 53-man roster are very slim. Most positions are set but there are those tough decisions that will combine ability, potential, salary and age to come out with the final roster on Saturday.
