We asked, you answered: fans predict Mike Green breakout in 2026
In last week’s Ravens Reacts survey, 61% of Baltimore Beatdown readers predicted that outside linebacker Mike Green would break out this season.

Report: Ravens signing punter Luke Elzinga
Of the Baltimore Ravens’ 10 lost free agents this offseason, one that has perhaps flown under the radar is punter Jordan Stout.

The Ravens have a strong alumni network in the football world. More than 140 former players have coaching or administrative jobs, and that list now has one more name: Marcus Peters.

DT D.J. Reader underwent physical with Ravens, could sign after draft
The Ravens hosted defensive tackle D.J. Reader for a visit this week, per KPRC2’s Aaron Wilson.

Reader, 31, started 32 games for the Lions […]

With the Baltimore Ravens regaining their first round pick in the aftermath of the Maxx Crosby debacle, there have been a few players frequently linked to them for the 14th pick in April’s draft.

Browns sign former Ravens WR Tylan Wallace
The Browns hired former Ravens offensive coordinator Todd Monken as their head coach this offseason, and he in turn brought several of his staffers to Cleveland. He was not, however, as aggressive in pursuing his former players in free agency, especially compared to John Harbaugh’s Giants. They already snapped up four ex-Ravens, though that has […]

Potential future Ravens take center stage at Penn State’s 2026 Pro Day
The Baltimore Ravens have not been shy about drafting prospects from Penn State in recent years. Since 2019, Baltimore has selected four players from the Nittany Lions, more than any other school during that timeframe (Trace McSorley, Odafe Oweh, Jordan Stout, Adisa Isaac). That trend could continue in 2026, as reports emerged late last season […]
Ravens to sign former Colts center Danny Pinter
The Ravens will need a new starting center for the 2026 season after Tyler Linderbaum’s departure in free agency. Corey Bullock, who served as the backup last year, is a younger in-house option, but the team badly needed to add a more experienced veteran. That has now come in the former of former Colts center […]

Ravens Free Agency: Winners and Losers so far
It’s been a busy start to the offseason for the Baltimore Ravens, who dominated national headlines during the first week of free agency.

Ravens release QB Cooper Rush
The 2025 season held many lessons for the Ravens. One was that Tyler Huntley is and long has been the best backup quarterback for Lamar Jackson. He re-signed with the team on a two-year deal before free agency, and accordingly, they released Cooper Rush at the start of the league year on Wednesday. The move […]
