TYLER, Texas — Baltimore Ravens free agent linebacker Tyus Bowser was back in his hometown of Tyler, Texas to host the fifth annual free football camp. Bowser graduated from Tyler High in 2013 and played college football at the University of Houston. He was a second round 47th pick to the Baltimore Ravens, where he's been ever since.
Bowser loves to come back to the community and provide fun coaching for the young athletes.
"I'm from Tyler, Texas and I just want to give back, " Bowser said. "They've done so much for me and they're reason I'm in a position I'm in now, so definitely want to give back."
Bowser's camp age ranges from ages 8–17, where he takes them through series of warm ups, drills, and a 7-on-7 game. They're not John Harbaugh training styles, but Bowser tries to lead them in fun summer workouts.
"I try to bring in more energy try to bring in as many guys just try to make the environment as easy and fun as possible for these kids," Bowser said. "That's all they want to do is just have fun moving around. This is the summertime for them, and for them to just get out, have some fun and have things to do."
Bowser hosts this camp annually at Tyler High school.
