[edit] Baltimore Ravens
He is signed to a three-year contract after being drafted by the Ravens in the fifth round (166th overall) in the 2006 NFL Draft. In his rookie season, Sypniewski saw action in all 16 games, primarily as a blocker. He finished the year with two catches for 15 yards.
Due to injuries to Todd Heap and Daniel Wilcox, Sypniewski saw more action early in the 2007 season, with six receptions against the Cleveland Browns on September 30, and more against San Francisco on October 7. He finished the season with 34 receptions for 246 yards and one touchdown.[1]
On April 19, 2008, Sypniewski tore his ACL and suffered minor damage to other ligaments during an offseason workout. The injury occurred when he bumped into teammate Antwan Barnes, causing him to plant his leg awkwardly on the floor. He was on the ground for several minutes and screamed in pain, he had to be carted off. He was later seen wearing a cast.[2] The injury has put his season in doubt.
