It had won a Super Bowl two years earlier with a defensive performance that the football world still references when discussing the standard of what a defense can achieve. When Ed Reed arrived from Miami as the 24th overall pick, he was joining a unit that had a culture, an identity, and a standard that it defended obsessively. What the Ravens were not fully prepared for was how much better Reed would make them. 🏈\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e🏈 Reed did not play safety the way anyone had seen safety played. His ability to read quarterback mechanics and offensive formations before the snap placed him in the right position on plays before the play began. His ball-hawking instinct, his range in coverage, and the extraordinary productivity he generated from the defensive side of the ball – more than 60 career interceptions, more interception return yards than any player in NFL history – made him the most impactful defensive back in the modern era. Nine Pro Bowls. One Defensive Player of the Year Award (2004). A Super Bowl ring in 2012. Induction into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 2019. The 2002 Topps Finest card at #109 is where the documented professional record begins.
