Team officials and fans have envisioned Perriman making these types of acrobatic catches since the Ravens selected him in the first round of the 2015 draft. The best sign of the third-year wide receiver's progress from Thursday's organized team activities, though, came moments later when Perriman, guarded closely along the sideline by cornerback
Jimmy Smith, turned at the exact moment the ball was on him and made a back-shoulder catch of a Flacco pass.
The catch earned him a congratulatory pat from Smith and was the latest example of Perriman's improving rapport with Flacco after the two weren't often on the same page last season.
"You look at Breshad out here and nobody, I think, is having a better camp than him so far," Ravens tight end
Dennis Pitta said after Thursday's workout. "He's making big plays everywhere, catching everything thrown his way."
