Wester Predicted TD of Punt: Ravens Star Fulfills Prediction

LaJohntay Wester stars in the Ravens’ victory with a dream return

Baltimore Ravens rookie LaJohntay Wester not only shined in the preseason game against the Indianapolis Colts, but also predicted his great performance. Wester anticipated the 87-yard return for a touchdown that he made in the first quarter of the match, sealing a 24-16 victory.

I had a great joint practice with them a couple of days ago and I was close to breaking one in practice. After that, I called my father and said, ‘I feel like one is going to come [on Thursday]’.

Selected in the sixth round of the draft, Wester demonstrated impressive agility, dodging Colts defenders and running down the right sideline to the end zone. His performance recalled the elusiveness of Deion Sanders, who was his coach in Colorado. Wester remembered a tip from Sanders on how to return kicks.

He just told me to relax and be confident, and that was my world back there.

In addition to his return, Wester led the Ravens with 41 receiving yards on two receptions. His teammates highlighted the importance of his touchdown, something that was missing in Baltimore last season.
