New Orleans, La. - Baltimore Ravens wide-receiver and New Orleans native Jacoby Jones presented two motorcycles to the New Orleans Police Department Traffic Division.
In a presentation Wednesday morning, Jones presented Mayor Landrieu with the pair of 2013 Harley Davidson motorcycles in appreciation of the services provided to the Ravens during their stay in New Orleans for Super Bowl XLVII.
Ravens owner Steve Bisciotti purchased two 2013 Harley Davidson FLHP motorcycles.
Throughout the duration of the team's week-long stay in New Orleans, the Ravens received police escorts to and from their destinations, 24-hour security and outstanding community support.
"I always talk to my teammates about southern hospitality, and the fact that it was on display enough during our Super Bowl week to have the Ravens donate something to the great people of New Orleans is special," Jones said.
Jones also commented that it was great to be back home and eat his mother's cooking.
