Baltimore Ravens safety Tony Jefferson is more in touch with the common fan than one would expect.

Jefferson entered free agency coming off the best season of his career, recording 96 tackles, two sacks, five pass deflections, and two forced fumbles in 15 games with the Arizona Cardinals in 2016.

Coveted by several teams, Jefferson used a resource designed for fans that ultimately helped him choose Baltimore.

"I had to personally go on NFL Game Pass and watch tape and film before I made a decision. I felt like this defense fits me," Jefferson said on "NFL Total Access" on Monday. "I feel like this style fits me. I love to hit, and do that type of stuff. And I think that's the culture, and that's what I want to be a part of."

Jefferson hasn't played a snap for the Ravens yet, but by all accounts, he appeared to have made the correct decision. Ravens safety Eric Weddle recently raved about Jefferson, stating that his new teammate is "just on another level."

"When you're surrounded by a bunch of guys like the guys that are in the locker room that Harbaugh and (general manager Ozzie Newsome) put together, it makes the transition easy," Jefferson said. "With guys like Eric Weddle, who's smart and a great football player, he's going to make me better as well. So I'm excited for the year to come."
