Some practices end with a few tired players. This one ended with ejections, interceptions, and a head coach making a point loud enough for everyone to hear. The field turned into a mix of frustration and fierce competition, with mistakes stacking up. Every snap felt like it could spark something bigger. And when that “something bigger” did happen, John Harbaugh wasted no time showing he still has plenty of creative ways to get his team’s attention.
Frustration hit early when the Ravens’ second offensive line committed three false starts in just four plays. John Harbaugh wasted no time pulling them from the field. As NFL reporter Giana Han posted on X: “John Harbaugh yanked the second offensive line after three false starts in four plays. When asked what happened to making them run laps like he did last year, he said he has a variety of false start punishments he can pull out. Up downs are one of the worst.” Message received, loud and clear.

Turnovers piled on as Lamar Jackson was picked off twice, first by Wiggins, then by Awuzie. Backup Cooper Rush didn’t escape either. NFL writer Jeff Zrebiec reported on X: “Wiggins and Awuzie have both intercepted Lamar Jackson today. Marquise Robinson picked off Cooper Rush.” But the real flashpoint came when Wiggins got in Keaton Goodson’s face, sparking a fight that led to both players being ejected. Harbaugh later reminded his team, “You don’t have to throw a punch to get thrown out in the game.”
