The Ravens have waived wide receiver Diontae Johnson after trading for him

Not two months after executing a deadline trade for wide receiver Diontae Johnson, the Baltimore Ravens have waived him.

The receiver leaves behind a significantly disappointing opportunity for the Ravens, as they’d hope to use him down the stretch and incorporate him into their offense down the stretch of the regular season and into their expected Super Bowl push in the playoffs. But after a lack of usage, Johnson became disgruntled with the coaching staff, ultimately culminating in him refusing to play in Week 13 against the [Philadelphia...

After a horrendously inconsistent start to the season, Kyle Hamilton was pinpointed as the main catalyst for the recent turnaround.

After finishing with the NFL’s top defense last season, the Baltimore Ravens were still expected to field one of the league’s best defenses in 2024 despite a massive brain drain from the coaching staff and the loss of some key starters in free agency during the offseason.

Heading into the regular season, the secondary was being billed as the deepest and most talented in the league with the potential to be elite but they were anything but through the first...

These defenders have taken on and filled vital roles that have resulted in improved stability and productivity.

After losing a bevy of coaches and a handful of key starters on the defensive side of the ball during the offseason, the Baltimore Ravens weren’t expected to repeat as the top unit in the league for the second year in a row. However, no one saw their wildly inconsistent start to the 2024 season coming in which they ranked at or near the bottom in both pass and total defense through the first 10 games.

A much-needed ‘come-to-Jesus’ closed-door meeting between players...

Allen’s MVP odds skyrocket despite historic season from Lamar Jackson

As the NFL season progresses into the latter stages of the year, the discourse around who will end up being the league’s most valuable player tends to heat up.

It dominates the media cycle, often surpassing the talk around team success, big late season games and the playoff picture.

This year, the MVP race has narrowed to three candidates: Bills quarterback Josh Allen, Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson and Eagles running back Saquon Barkley. After Buffalo’s 48-42 win against the now 12-2 Detroit Lions, Allen’s MVP odds have skyrocketed to (-900)...

The latest power rankings following their Week 15 blowout of the New York Giants.

Most national pundits haven’t changed their views or opinions on the Baltimore Ravens who returned from a much-needed and well-timed bye and trounced the New York Giants 35-14 in a confidence-boosting Week 15 tune-up ahead of a critical division matchup on a quick turnaround. The consensus belief is that they are still a top 10 team in the league with most not moving them at all while others did slightly up or back on their respective lists. Now, it’s time to see where the team lands...

Risers and fallers after Ravens 35-14 win in New York

The Ravens came out of their late bye in impressive fashion. The New York Giants are a shell of an NFL team, and a dominant Ravens win was expected by everyone, highlighted by the absurd 16.5 point spread going into the match up. However, the Ravens, who have notoriously played down to inferior competition this year, handled business with an offense that looked more like the unit that walked teams up and down the field through the first ten weeks of the season. With a massive divisional clash with the...

The first-round cornerback battled another top pick while the fourth-round wideout made the most of his first catch.

The Baltimore Ravens returned from their bye refreshed and notched a dominant bounce-back over the New York Giants 35-14 on Sunday and got significant contributions from several members of their 2024 rookie class. Their first two selections continued to stand out while two of their Day 3 picks recorded career milestones impressively.

Of the team’s rookies, only three—outside linebacker Adisa Isaac, center Nick Samac and safety Sanoussi Kane—were inactive. Here is how the rest of Baltimore’s first-year players fared in their latest...
