Tylan Wallace's Overtime Punt Return Touchdown Lifts Ravens to Top of AFC
In a thrilling overtime victory against the Rams, Tylan Wallace's first career punt return touchdown propels the Ravens to the top spot in the AFC.
- Tylan Wallace, a fourth-round pick from 2021 who is a core special teams player but has received little playing time on offense, produced Baltimore's first punt return for a touchdown in five years on just his third runback of the game.
- Wallace's 76-yard punt return touchdown after both the Rams’ and Ravens’ defenses had gotten stops in overtime, wrote a new chapter to a Baltimore season that has already featured some gratifying highs and extreme lows.
- Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson, coach John Harbaugh and most of the team sprinted to the end zone to celebrate with Wallace.
- Ravens (10-3) won for the seventh time in eight games and moved to the top spot in the AFC.
- Rams (6-7) lost a back-and-forth affair to Baltimore in a game that saw nine lead changes — the most in a game this season — where the team that had the ball last seemed destined to win this one.
