At the Baltimore Ravens' team meeting on Sunday morning, coach John Harbaugh emphasized the pressure on rookie kicker Tyler Loop. 'You're going into the stadium, and all the fans are going to be watching you,' Harbaugh told Loop.

In front of 26,052 fans at M&T Bank Stadium, Loop didn't flinch, hitting all 11 of his field-goal attempts, including from 56 and 60 yards. Since being selected in the sixth round this year, Loop has demonstrated a strong leg and unwavering confidence, crucial as he steps into the spotlight of Baltimore's training camp.

The Ravens chose the 24-year-old Loop to succeed Justin Tucker, the most accurate kicker in NFL history, who was released in May amid allegations of sexual misconduct and subsequently suspended for 10 games by the league.

Loop, a University of Arizona alumnus, remains unfazed by the pressure of replacing Tucker. 'I think it can be pressure if you focus on it,' Loop said. 'But if we're focused on what I can control, my process, all that stuff, it just, it's one of those things.'

Loop is the first kicker drafted by the Ravens in the team's 30-year history and the only current kicker on the roster after Baltimore waived undrafted rookie John Hoyland on Saturday.

Harbaugh, however, is cautious about handing the job to Loop immediately. 'He's kicking well enough to win the job,' Harbaugh said. 'But as we know, it's going to be the [preseason] games that's going to mean the most.'

Like Tucker, Loop has proven to be accurate, making 51 of his 55 field goal attempts (92.7%) in team drills. After launching a 60-yard field goal at the stadium practice Sunday, Loop outstretched both arms before twirling his index finger in the air. 'The second it left my foot, I'm like, 'There we go,'' Loop said.

Following his perfect kick, Loop received a pat on the back from Harbaugh and a hug from quarterback Lamar Jackson. Ravens punter Jordan Stout, Loop's holder, noted that the team's tracking system indicated the kick would've been good from 67 yards. Stout also highlighted Loop's confidence, which was already high before his impressive showing at M&T Bank Stadium.

Ravens senior special teams coach Randy Brown handpicked Loop after evaluating around 30 kickers nationwide before the draft. The Ravens' decision not to bring in a veteran to compete with Loop underscores their confidence in him.

Loop appears set to take over for Tucker, provided he performs well in the preseason, which begins Thursday when the Ravens host the Indianapolis Colts. So far, Loop has shown no signs of intimidation, embracing the challenge of following a seven-time Pro Bowl kicker.

'One thing we talk about is just staying loose and just enjoying it,' Loop said. 'Really, this is such a short time for us. The more that we can control what we can control, and one of the things is our emotions and our response to things. So if I can get out there and just have fun, that's special and a big thing for me. I'm enjoying it.'
