Ravens “Dawg” receiver Tylan Wallace makes a big breakthrough in victory over the Bengals

Ravens teammates probably think of Wallace as a weapon.

“He can do anything,” Jackson said of the wideout. “Just last year he did a walk-off punt return for us, on the same sideline and in purple. So I think it's just his little wizard uniform. He comes through when the lights are on (In prime time. Kudos to Tylan because that was his first 100-yard game.

Wallace led the Bengals with 115 yards on three catches. It wasn't just his first 100-yard game. It more than doubled his career output to date. He started the night with nine catches for 98 yards with no touchdowns.

The 25-year-old loves playing for the Bengals. On Thursday, he caught five of his nine career catches against Cincy for 69 yards. He now has 184 and 213 career yards in four seasons against the Bengals.

“He’s a buddy and he makes great plays,” tight end Mark Andrews said. “Tylan doesn’t get a lot of affection, but he should get it. He makes great plays and he gets going. That was just a great play; That’s all there is to it.”

The game highlights the Ravens' ability to get every man on the roster to perform. On a day when Zay Flowers (four catches, 34 yards) was slowed and the rushing attack failed to generate 100 yards, Wallace came up with a huge play that helped turn the tide.
