The Baltimore Ravens never gave up hope of getting back fullback Vonta Leach, and Monday they got their wish. Leach signed a two-year contract with the defending Super Bowl champions after failing to find a proper suitor in the free agent market. ''I'm excited about it. It's great news,'' coach John Harbaugh said. ''We've been in contact, we've been talking all along. It worked out great for the Ravens.'' Leach paved the way for running back Ray Rice to gain 1,143 yards last season. Leach ran nine times for 32 yards during the regular season and scored a touchdown against Indianapolis during Baltimore's run to the Super Bowl. But Leach declined to renegotiate his contract during the offseason and was released by Baltimore in June. At the time, Ravens general manager Ozzie Newsome left open the possibility that Leach could come back, saying, ''There could be an opportunity for him to return to the Ravens once he explores the free-agent market.''

really kinda surprised no one picked him up. Hes a good receiver out of the backfield but he is the perfect fit for a ZBS blocking system FB and is probably the best FB in the league right now
