Joe Flacco acknowledged that he was initially skeptical two months ago when offensive coordinator Cam Cameron suggested a cross-country trip to meet USC pitching coach Tom House.
Now, the Ravens quarterback says he always will keep in touch with House.
The training session taught Flacco how to strengthen the muscles around his shoulder.
"I just want to make sure I keep my shoulder as healthy as possible," Flacco said. "This gives me the best chance to stay healthy. This is something that I can add to my workout."
He added, "I think it's going to keep me healthy throughout the season and hopefully my career."
