Ravens WR coach Tee Martin shares what he’s seen from WR Tylan Wallace
The Baltimore Ravens have four players from their 2020 and 2021 draft classes that are looking to make massive impacts at the wide receiver position. Rashod Bateman, Devin Duvernay, James Proche II and Tylan Wallace are all still very young, but each has the talent to make a surprising level of contributions when it comes to the Baltimore offense in 2022.
Ravens wide receiver coach Tee Martin was asked about what he’s seen out of Wallace, who’s a second-year player out of Oklahoma State. Martin talked about how he has great hands and is a really good route runner, as well as the fact that he has a role to play.
“[Tylan Wallace has] great hands, [he’s] a really good route runner and very tough and physical. I got a chance to see that on special teams. He was a guy that, coming in, I didn’t know if he would play like that on special teams, and he really proved to us how tough he was on special teams. And it did – it translated to the games, where later in the season, we depended on him to do some stuff in the run game for us, as well as in some empty formations and things of that nature. He had a role to play, and he did a good job later in the season, and that role will expand as we move forward.”
Wallace only caught two passes for 23 yards during the 2021 season, but the flashes that he was able to show were an enticing glimpse of what he can bring to the table with more snaps. It seems as if the former fourth-round pick will have plenty of opportunities to showcase who he is as a wideout in 2022, something that he seemingly intends to take full advantage of.
