Everyone knows that the Baltimore Ravens legendary linebacker, Ray Lewis, played his high school football at Lakeland Kathleen before going on to the University of Miami.

So, no one should be surprised that after the 2010 NFL draft, Lewis would notice a young free agent trying out for the team who just happened to also be a product of Lakeland Kathleen. No one knows for sure what role Lewis played, but the Ravens signed Albert McClellan to a contract as an undrafted free agent. Another talent McClellan shares with the Hall of Famer Lewis, is he also is a linebacker.

McClellan played his college football at Marshall University, and in 2006, was named the Conference USA Defensive Player of the Year. McClellan was a three-time All-Conference USA selection at Marshall. He redshirted in2007 after suffering a torn anterior cruciate ligament in pre-season. That injury sidelined him for a year.

McClellan played as the fourth string middle linebacker behind Lewis, Jameel McClain, and Danell Ellerbe, but saw more playing time due to injuries. With an injury to Terrell Suggs, McClellan had a chance to compete for a starting outside linebacker spot.

McClellan got the start and has started 3 games so far.
