The temperature at kickoff is 19 degrees with a wind chill that makes it feel like 10 degrees.

Ravens tight end Maxx Williams took the field for pre-game warm-ups without a shirt before Sunday’s regular-season finale.

Even for a Minnesota native, that’s crazy.

Today’s game marks the coldest home game in Ravens franchise history. The temperature at kickoff was 19 degrees with a wind chill that made it feel like 10 degrees.

The previous coldest game was the Ravens’ 2000 wild-card game on Dec. 31, which ended in a 21-3 victory over the Denver Broncos.

That game had a temperature of 22 degrees at kickoff with a wind chill of 5 degrees.

On Friday, Head Coach John Harbaugh was asked his strategy for dealing with the cold temperatures.

“I try to store fat – as much fat between now and the game time as possible,” he joked.
