Can Ravens overcome ‘worst possible matchup’ in Week 1 vs. Bills?

Can Ravens overcome ‘worst possible matchup’ in Week 1 vs. Bills?

Last year, the Ravens opened the season against the Chiefs, who were labeled the “worst possible matchup at the worst possible time.” Will the Ravens avoid doing so a second time?

Last season, the Baltimore Ravens opened the season on the road against the back-to-back defending Super Bowl champion Kansas City Chiefs. Two of the NFL’s super powers — with their superstar quarterbacks — went toe-to-toe. The game even decided by a toe, with Isaiah Likely being an inch from scoring a touchdown that would’ve allowed the Ravens to tie or go for the win.

The game was a heartbreaker...

Ravens safety suffers major injury during offseason conditioning

Ravens safety suffers major injury during offseason conditioning

Ar’Darius Washington tears Achilles; will potentially miss all of 2025 season.

In a shocking news release Tuesday evening, Ian Rapoport revealed Baltimore Ravens safety Ar’Darius Washington tore his Achilles during conditioning this offseason.

This is a massive blow. Sure, the Ravens added Malaki Starks in the first round this past draft, which will help offset this. But that was to help support Kyle Hamilton and Washington playing full time. It would have allowed the Ravens to have three reliable safeties, allowing Hamilton to play his versatile chess piece role that had him in Defensive Player of the Year discussions in...

Ravens travel miles among fewest for 2025 season; 31% decrease from 2024

The Ravens’ schedule of opponents may be challenging, but they avoid the extra challenge of long-distance travel.

The Baltimore Ravens signed three undrafted rookies.

On Monday, the Baltimore Ravens signed three undrafted rookies, bringing their roster to 89 players. The three signed were Wyoming kicker John Hoyland, Army offensive tackle Lucas Scott and Louisiana-Lafayette defensive back Keyon Martin.

Baltimore has a long list of quality players set to hit free agency next year

Being one of the best organizations at drafting and developing players means that the Baltimore Ravens will lose more quality talent to free agency than most teams. With a long list of important players set to hit free agency in 2026 and a quarterback on a massive contract, Baltimore will surely part ways with one or two players they would prefer to keep.

The list of notable Ravens in the last year of their contract includes running backs Derrick Henry and Keaton Mitchell, tight ends...

The case for and against a Jadeveon Clowney reunion for the Ravens

The case for and against a Jadeveon Clowney reunion for the Ravens

The former Raven in back on the market — could he find his way back to Baltimore once more?

After being released by the Carolina Panthers last week, veteran edge rusher Jadeveon Clowney is now on the open market. Shortly after he became a free agent, rumors began swirling of a potential return to join the Ravens.

Clowney, the former No. 1 overall pick in 2014, had a brief but memorable one-year stint in Baltimore two years ago. He ultimately priced himself out of the team’s budget after the 2023 season and signed a two-year, $20 million contract with the...

Which undrafted rookie has the best chance to make the Ravens’ roster?

Which undrafted rookie has the best chance to make the Ravens’ roster?

The Baltimore Ravens are traditionally very active in the undrafted free agent market immediately following the draft, and this year was no different. After selecting 11 prospects in the draft, the Ravens then signed 17 more undrafted rookies to fill their total first-year class.

For a long time, there was a long streak in Baltimore where an undrafted free agent wound up making the final 53-man roster. While that pattern has since flucuated a bit more year-to-year, there’s still a history of undrafted signees making the team and exceeding expectations.

Looking at this year’s loaded group of UDFAs, there a...

Report: Tyus Bowser withdraws $4.5 million grievance against Ravens

The former 2017 second-round pick for the Baltimore Ravens filed a grievance against the team in March 2023. Now, he’s withdrawn it.

According to The Baltimore Sun’s Brian Wacker, former Baltimore Ravens linebacker Tyus Bowser has withdrawn his grievance against the team.

Bowser claimed the Ravens had misdiagnosed a knee injury which kept him off the field the for entire 2023 season. After being released in March 2024, Bowser filed the grievance which incurred a $1.8 million salary cap penalty against the team. Had he won the case, they’d be penalized another $2.7 million.
