Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Willie Snead may not be one of the best wideouts in the NFL, but he was among the best in the league at making defenders miss after the catch this past season:

On the season, Snead played in all 16 games (the first time he has done that in his career) and hauled in 62 receptions for 651 yards and a touchdown as the Ravens' No. 3 receiver behind John Brown and Michael Crabtree.

Now, both Brown and Crabtree are gone, so Snead will assume the role as the lead wideout for second-year quarterback Lamar Jackson.

Snead is entering his second season with the Ravens.

The 26-year-old, who played collegiate football at Ball State, went undrafted but eventually gained his first NFL action with the New Orleans Saints in 2015, catching 69 passes for 984 yards and three scores in a surprisingly effective season.

Then, the following year, Snead was once again impressive, snaring 72 balls for 895 yards while reaching the end zone four times.

Willie Snead then got scattered playing time with the Saints in 2017, when he was hit with a three-game suspension for a DWI and ended up appearing in just 11 contests. He finished with only eight catches for 92 yards on the year, ending his tenure in New Orleans.

He signed a two-year deal with the Ravens last April.

Baltimore is coming off a 2018 campaign in which it won 10 games and captured the AFC North Division title before losing to the Los Angeles Chargers in the wild card round of the playoffs.
