Ravens' Sam Koch: Headed for retirement
Koch has announced his retirement as an NFL player on Thursday, the Ravens' official site reports.
Koch retires after starting all but one game for Baltimore over the past 16 seasons and currently holds the NFL's third-longest streak for consecutive starts with 239 from 2006 to 2020. The one-time Pro Bowl punter was very consistent over the course of his career, averaging 45.3 yards per punt with just two seasons averaging below 44 yards per punt. Koch was also the Ravens' longest-tenured player and will leave big shoes to fill for his likely successor in 2022 fifth-round pick Jordan Stout.

Ravens' Sam Koch: Heads to COVID-19 list
The Ravens placed Koch on the reserve/COVID-19 list Wednesday.
Koch either tested positive for the virus or came into close contact with someone who did. It's unclear if Koch will be available for Sunday's game against the Bengals. The Ravens don't have a punter on their practice squad, but they could sign a punter off another franchise's practice squad for the season finale. Otherwise, kicker Justin Tucker -- who punted for Texas in college -- could take over as the team's punter.
