The new statue, which sits outside Gate A of the Raven's M&T Bank Stadium, depicts Lewis in the middle of his famous pregame scream. It is located side by side with the Johnny Unitas statue, which was moved to make room for the Ray Lewis statue (now Unitas is on left, Lewis on right). Both statues were made by the same artist

Johnny Unitas played for the Baltimore Colts 1956-1972

The Colts' last seaaon in Baltimore was 1983, then they moved to Indianapolis

The Cleveland Browns moved to Baltimore in 1996, and were renamed the Ravens. The first two seasons in Baltimore, the Ravens played in the same stadium that Johnny Unitas and the Baltimore Colts did (1996 and 1997). Since then, that stadium was unoccupied and demolished over a ten-month period beginning in 2001

In 1998, the Ravens began playing in their current stadium which is 5 miles away from where the old stadium was. The new stadium was built from 1996-1998.

Ed Reed doesn't get a statue (at least not yet) because he didn't start playing there until 2002, while Lewis had been there since 1996 (Reed was drafted #24 overall, Lewis #26 overall) and Lewis won two Super Bowls to one for Reed and Lewis was twice NFL DPOY, Reed once. They both played for Baltimore until 2012, when they won their only Super Bowl together

Ray Lewis before Ed Reed arrived, 1996-2001:

-5x Pro Bowl (97, 98, 99, 00, 01)

-5x All Pro (2ndT 97; 1stT 98, 99, 00, 01)

-1x NFL DPOY (00)

-1x Super Bowl MVP (00)

Ed Reed and Ray Lewis Together, 2002-2012:

LEWIS

-8x Pro Bowl (03-04, 06-11)

-5x All Pro (1stT 03, 04, 08, 09; 2ndT 10)

-1x NFL DPOY (03)
