Sharpe led the Baltimore Ravens this season with 67 catches and 810 yards receiving. He was an integral part of the offense on third downs and scored five touchdowns, including the game-winner in an important victory over Jacksonville. He's a tight end that really moves well, more like a wide receiver. He understands the game, he's smart and has good speed. You have your hands full against someone like that.
Sharpe also provides defenses with an earful.
Although he's been talking nonstop this week, he's saving plenty for the Super Bowl. It's all a part of the leadership quality coach Brian Billick was looking for when they signed the former Denver Broncos star as a free agent during the offseason. He knew I worked hard. He knew I played with passion. I enjoy the game, and he wanted me to bring that confidence to the team.
