Ravens beat writer Aaron Wilson of the Baltimore Sun said the team's staff goes out of its way to arrange intervies with players and coaches and is one of the best in the NFL at providing complete transcripts quickly during practices and home games.
"The Ravens are extremely professional and accommodating in helping reporters do their job," he said, adding that the team also put together off-the-record briefings with the team's coaching staff, including film and Q&A sessions.
Chad Steele is director of media relations and Patrick Gleason public/media relations manager for the Ravens, who won the Super Bowl in February. The team's PR staff won the Rozelle award in 2011 as well.
The Houston Texans' PR team won the Rozelle award for 2012, 2010 and 2008.
