M&T Bank Stadium, 2003-present

In 2003, Baltimore Ravens Stadium at Camden Yards was renamed M&T Bank Stadium. The natural grass surface was replaced with Sportexe Momentum Turf. It was decorated with a slightly modified version of the 2002 field design, which has remained virtually unchanged for nearly a decade.

Variations:

• NFL Kickoff logos appeared at the 25 yard lines for the Ravens' 2005 opener against the Colts.


• In 2006, NFL logos were added to the 25 yard lines. In 2008, the NFL logo was updated (to include 8 stars representing the eight divisions), and the field logos were changed to reflect this.


• NFL Playoffs logos appeared at the 50 yard line for the Ravens' Divisional Playoff Game against the Colts on January 13, 2007.


• For the Ravens' 2008 opener against the Bengals, an NFL Kickoff logo appeared at the 50 yard line, along with a black circle with the initials "GU" in memory of former NFL Players' Association director Gene Upshaw.


• NFL Kickoff logos appeared at the 25 yard lines for the Ravens' 2009 opener against the Chiefs.


• In 2010, it appears that the X's on the 30 yard lines marking the position for kickoffs were removed. They were also missing in 2011, when the kickoff spot was moved up to the 35 yard line.


• Red, white, and blue ribbon logos, marking the tenth anniversary of the 2001 terrorist attacks, appeared at the 25 yard lines for the Ravens' Week 1 game on September 11, 2011 against the Steelers.


• Pink ribbon logos appeared at the 25 yard lines for the Ravens' Week 4 game on October 2, 2011 against the Jets as part of the NFL's campaign to promote breast cancer awareness.
