Ravens' Webb looking forward to going against Steve Smith in practice

Newly acquired Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Steve Smith is known for his intensity in practice, and that suits cornerback Lardarius Webb just fine. 

Webb told the Baltimore Sun he is looking forward to battling Smith on the practice field. 

"It will be me against him in practice every day, making each other better," said Webb, who's holding a charity softball game June 1 at M&T Bank Stadium. "Getting to guard him in practice will make me even more prepared for games."

"With me going against him every day, with how he practices and the way he plays, his attitude about the game, is going to make me 100 percent better. I love the matchup. I can’t wait to meet him. It’s going to be big.”

Webb also feels Smith's personality is a perfect fit for the Ravens. 

"He’s a big-time player," Webb said. "He loves to win. I told Harbs, he plays like a Raven, physical, hate to lose, that toughness. He fits in our locker room. That's going to be big for our offense and defense."
