Ray Lewis ends his teeth-rattling career tonight in the Super Bowl in New Orleans, one that will likely lead to the Pro Football Hall of Fame.
But that career nearly ended 13 years ago in a deadly knife fight, a fracas that left a bloody trail from a Buckhead street to inside Lewis’ limousine and to his suite at the Georgian Terrace. Inside his room, Lewis — then a rising star for the Baltimore Ravens — put his head in his hands as he realized he would be linked to the deaths of two young men. He wondered aloud if he’d played his last game.
