Michael Phelps is a man of his word … ’cause one week after accepting the Baltimore Ravens’ invite for some swimming lessons, he delivered!!
The Team USA GOAT met up with several members of the Ravens’ roster at a local pool on Tuesday … and showed them the ropes on how to get better in the water.

As we previously reported, guys on the squad asked Phelps for help after taking a dip in the new Under Armour Performance Center recovery pool … and the diehard Baltimore fan happily volunteered to assist.
Ravens staffer Ryan Mink shared a bunch of awesome footage from the pool day … including some one-on-one time between the 23-time gold medalist and Travis Jones — where he instructed the defensive tackle on how to kick better.
There was also some friendly competition … when Phelps actually raced against several players — except he gave them a head start, and also swam entirely underwater.

Phelps kept it real when it came to everyone’s potential, though … admitting it would take a LOT of work for anyone on the team to make it to Olympic-level swimming — but come on, that’s not too surprising.
Who does @MichaelPhelps think on the team has what it takes to be an Olympic swimmer?? 😂

The 40-year-old explained he went six years without missing a day in the tank … so yeah, it requires insane commitment — here’s hoping the Ravens don’t take it too personally.
