### **Reuben Lowery III**
Lowery, who plays both corner and safety, braced himself when he was summoned to DeCosta's office for the verdict. He was a [dean’s list student in mechanical engineering](https://www.baltimoreravens.com/news/reuben-lowery-smarts-mechanical-engineer-roster-spot-bid-zach-orr-rusty-wright) at Tennessee-Chattanooga, so Lowery is used to passing tests. But hearing DeCosta say he had made the team was still surreal.
"I haven't actually digested the moment yet, but I think that's also a good thing, not to stay complacent in this moment, but to continue to work," Lowery said. "One day or one moment, I'm going to definitely look back on it and be like, 'Wow, this is insane.'"
Lowery started making plays in the spring and kept on throughout the summer, including a leaping interception against the Cowboys in the preseason. His mastery oh the playbook allowed him to play fast no matter where the Ravens placed him in the secondary.
Instead of worrying about whether he would make the team, Lowery stayed in the moment, which showed in his play. He was confident and played like he belonged, and now he does.
"When you put all your work you can do, everything you can give each and every single day, that you can be at peace with whatever decision is made," Lowery said. "I'm at peace right now."
