Garrett Dellinger Was Born In Maryland And His Mom’s Family Still Lives Here, So “My Mom Was Very Excited” When The Ravens Drafted Him

Ravens 7th round pick and former LSU Offensive Lineman Garrett Dellinger was a guest on Glenn Clark Radio Wednesday.

Among the topics he discussed were:
-His unique connection to Baltimore-having been born here and living here until he was 5 because his mom is from here and both she and his father played basketball at Towson
-What it means to his mom’s family that he was selected by the Ravens
-The conflicting emotions of falling to the 7th round but then hearing his name called at all
-Getting to start his NFL career alongside fellow former LSU offensive lineman and 3rd round pick Emery Jones Jr.
-Carrying a chip on his shoulder to prove teams wrong that didn’t draft him earlier
