Former Baltimore Ravens linebacker Ray Lewis is still buying into conspiracy theories surrounding the power outage during Super Bowl XLVII in New Orleans.
Lewis spoke about the infamous blackout on an episode of Peyton Manning's ESPN+ show "Peyton's Places," reiterating comments he made in 2013 about it being done intentionally to stop a blowout from occurring.
Lewis and the Ravens were leading the San Francisco 49ers 28-6 with 13:22 left in the third quarter when the lights went out at the Superdome. The 49ers then rallied back once play resumed, but the Ravens held on to win 34-31.
Super Bowl XLVII was also Lewis' final NFL game.
