Way to go, John!!!

This guys is incredible, nice job at the NSA and the elementary school John 

[reed20fence]

So basically he's helping the NSA find ways to find and track terrorists by effectively filtering meta-data instead of just collecting and housing all of our emails, phone calls, web clicks, etc.

Good work man.

My Son is still waiting for you to get back with him Urschel, you said you would be his Higher Level Math Mentor. that stuff in the picture lol. Well Focus on Camp tomorrow, he'll see you next off season. I know you will read this. #Ravens

Urschel is a genius he probably could build a robot LOL

[MissRay27]

To intelligent for just football. There's a greater calling on his life, he's needed to do to help make people's lives better. That's not say the Ravens don't need him, they certainly do, but I think he's been blessed to serve a greater cause, mankind.

[Rasenshuriken84]

man this is awesome, not only do we have a kick butt guard on our team, but we also got the smartest guy in the NFL. it's actually really cool to hear about all the stuff he does, it goes to show people that the stigma of line men being dumb jocks is no more.

I'm going to be in shock for a while with this one

[stampedehero]

Stunning!!!  With his influence, mathematicians will toss the chalk and wear his jersey. Count on it.

I really respect Urschel's intelligence and I like that he is still working on expanding his math knowledge. I wish I possessed a lot more math knowledge.

we will be increasing our "nerd fanbase" (no offense intended) with this guy lol

[balfan23]

You want to talk about a football role model. Wow.

[NeilfromBarbados]

He's a versatile guy. The writer is right... he'll have a ton of career options when football is over.

[Godfather A]

Being a lineman is about leverage. That is basic physics. Physics is math at heart.

Always suspect a guy in a lab coat to have a purple Ravens shirt on under the pocket protector.lol

[Bob21043]

Harbaugh can use him to calculate the probability of challenge calls and the new extra point attempts. Any advantage can help!

[cobrajet]

You want to talk about a football role model. Wow.

Urschel is quickly becoming one of my favorite Ravens and he may become a starter next year if we can't work out a deal with either K.O. or Yanda.

[Space11jams]

He needs to retire a Raven. What a Ravens style class act.

[Bob21043]

He needs an extra-padded helmet to protect that brain. Would be a real tragedy if something happened. Oh, to be so young and so talented.

[cushrinada1986]

Give it to a Offensive Linemen to know a thing or two about intrusion protection lolz..

[757RavensFan]

Great for him! Totally shattering the "dumb jock" stereotype.   Good to know, he's already set for a career after football.

[balfan23]

Also - the fact that he's operating at this level after only completing his undergraduate degree is ridiculous. To call him gifted is an understatement.

I need to get some raven lab coat & pocket protectors... It's a new market lol
