The Ravens activated linebacker Teddye Buchanan from active/physically unable to perform, the team announced.
Buchanan, who is returning from a torn ACL, passed his physical Friday.
Buchanan injured his knee on Dec. 14.
"This dude has been incredible in how he's attacked coming off the injury that he's come off of," Ravens coach Jesse Minter said of Buchanan last week, via Ryan Mink of the team website. "It's our job to make sure that when we put him into the football environment that he's ready and he doesn't have any setbacks off of that."
Buchanan took over the starting job next to Roquan Smith early last season and finished third on the team with 93 tackles despite missing the final three games.

The Baltimore Ravens placed veteran offensive tackle Kendall Lamm on the reserve/retired list Friday, ending his brief tenure with the organization.
Baltimore signed Lamm on Aug. 5 after Hakeem Adeniji was placed on the reserve/retired list. The Ravens hoped the 34-year-old could provide experience behind starting tackles Ronnie Stanley and Roger Rosengarten, but Lamm stepped away before appearing in a preseason game for the team.
Lamm played 11 NFL seasons after entering the league as an undrafted free agent from Appalachian State in 2015. He appeared for the Houston Texans, Cleveland Browns, Tennessee **** ans and Miami Dolphins, providing experience at both tackle positions. He spent the previous four seasons with Miami and appeared in 13 games last year.
His departure leaves Baltimore evaluating its tackle depth again. Carson Vinson enters his second season after being selected in the fifth round of the 2025 draft, while Gerad Lichtenhan and undrafted rookie Diego Pounds are also competing for reserve positions. Emery Jones Jr. offers additional flexibility as a guard-tackle option.
The Ravens have now placed two veteran tackles on the reserve/retired list since training camp began. Adeniji stepped away eight days after signing, and Lamm's stay lasted little more than a week.

Ravens urged to release 2024 draft pick to shakeup RB room behind Derrick Henry originally appeared on The Sporting News. Add The Sporting News as a Preferred Source by clicking here.
The Baltimore Ravens are going to be trimming down the roster over the next few weeks as they get down to 53 players for the regular season.
While there are bound to be some tough decisions, one that should be quite easy is in the running back room behind superstar and potential future Hall of Famer Derrick Henry.
Moe Moton of Bleacher Report is urging the Ravens to cut ties with 2024 draft pick and backup RB Rasheen Ali. Moving on from Ali makes perfect sense, as the backfield behind Henry doesn't really need Ali anymore.
"Baltimore may only have room for three tailbacks," Moton writes. "If so, Ali probably loses his spot on the back end of the depth chart."

The Philadelphia Eagles will open the preseason against the Baltimore Ravens on Saturday night at M&T Bank Stadium, but the final score will be secondary to what Nick Sirianni and his staff learn about the roster.
Jalen Hurts and many established starters may receive little or no playing time. Baltimore has already announced that Lamar Jackson and its proven starters will sit. That will shift the spotlight toward players competing for backup jobs, rotational roles and the final spots on Philadelphia's initial 53-man roster.
Here are five things the Eagles need to learn during their preseason opener.
Philadelphia has spent training camp installing a new offense under first-year coordinator Sean Mannion. Saturday will provide the first opportunity to evaluate the system against an opponent in a game setting.
The Eagles don't need to unveil every formation or concept they plan to use during the regular season. They do need to show that players can communicate the calls, line up correctly and operate with the timing Mannion has emphasized throughout the summer.

Baltimore Ravens linebacker Roquan Smith certainly knew that his reps in 2026 training camp would be intensified. So intense was it that Smith had to watch his teammate defensive back Nate Wiggins be carted off from practice this week. Still, the task at hand will continue for Smith as he spends the next three weeks mastering the playbook under new head coach Jesse Minter.
Smith understands that defensive execution is an art, and his desire to rattle offensive opponents will only intensify in 2026. Minter's 3-3-5 scheme could give Smith opportunities to blitz, play as a spy, and minimize his pass-defense duties. Moreover, defensive hot routes, personnel grouping, and audibles will be points of emphasis throughout upcoming training camp sessions.
With an improved pass rush in 2026, defensive coordinator Anthony Weaver should be able to encourage an aura of determination within his front four. Weaver wants to dictate the line of scrimmage, and Smith's low, instinctive play will be a key to countering opposing dual-threat quarterbacks. At middle linebacker, Smith is the team's quarterback on defense, and his innate ability to play with decisiveness and discernment will be vitally important to the team. For Smith, that all starts with mastering the defensive playbook.

The Browns are taking a look at some veteran help on defense.
Tyus Bowser worked out for Cleveland on Wednesday, ESPN's Adam Schefter reports.
Bowser, 31, last played for Miami in 2024. He appeared in seven games with four starts for the club that season after appearing in two for Seattle while on the club's practice squad.
Browns head coach Todd Monken has familiarity with Bowser, who spent the first seven years of his career with the Ravens. Monken served as Baltimore's offensive coordinator from 2023-2025.
In his 98 career games with 28 starts, Bowser has registered 19.5 sacks with 22 tackles for loss and 48 quarterback hits.

The Washington Commanders will host their first-ever joint practice from the team's Ashburn facilities on Wednesday when the Miami Dolphins come to town. It's the first of two joint practices for Washington. The Commanders will head to Baltimore in two weeks for a joint practice with the Ravens.
The joint practices are often more valuable than the preseason games because the starters receive plenty of work against the other team's starters. It also gives teams a chance to compete against a different team, rather than hitting each other for weeks.
Since the Commanders host the Dolphins in the preseason opener on Friday, Wednesday's practice will likely give fans a better chance to see Washington's starters. Head coach Dan Quinn and his coaching staff will likely be looking for a few specific things.
Here are five things to watch in Wednesday's joint practice.
Daniels has been outstanding over the first couple of weeks of practice. You wouldn't know he's playing in a new offense. He looks completely comfortable within the scheme and playing from under center. However, Wednesday will give offensive coordinator David Blough a chance to see Daniels in something more resembling a game. This is a big test for Daniels. After a slow start against Washington's improved defense in camp, Daniels has been extremely sharp over the last several practices. Which receiver will he look to the most? Will the pass protection hold up?

According to FOX59/CBS4's Mike Chappell, Indianapolis Colts longtime general manager Chris Ballard clarified on Tuesday in Foxborough to the covering media that starting wide receiver Alec Pierce did not actually receive a 2nd PRP injection in late June—contradicting an earlier circulating report:
Per Colts GM Chris Ballard: WR Alec Pierce did not have a second PRP injection. Clearing up confusion. Been rehabbing since March surgery. Feel good where he's at.
The plan is still for Pierce to ready for the Colts regular season opener at home against the Baltimore Ravens on Sunday, September 13th.
That being said, Ballard did indicate that Pierce's injury was both to his ankle and heel.
It will be interesting to see if Pierce can make it back by the time training camp ends, because the Colts have just four training camp practices left this offseason. Time at Colts camp has simply flown by.

New York Giants fullback Patrick Ricard left little doubt about the identity head coach John Harbaugh is installing in East Rutherford.
Appearing on NFL Network's Inside Training Camp Live, the veteran lead blocker said the message was clear from the moment Harbaugh recruited him.
"You know, when Harbaugh was recruiting me to come up here, he told me that he's building a bully in New York, and I think that's exactly what we're trying to do," Ricard said. "We're trying to be the bullies in this area. And if you come to MetLife Stadium, you're gonna get bullied, and that's exactly what we want to be."
Ricard spent his entire previous career with the Baltimore Ravens under Harbaugh before signing with the Giants this offseason. The coach's pitch about constructing a physical, imposing roster proved decisive. That same emphasis on toughness has been visible throughout training camp, where Ricard and other newcomers have set a more violent tone in the trenches and on the edges.
The fullback stressed that the goal extends beyond mere toughness. The Giants aim to field physical teams that play harder than anyone else and seek to dominate every game.

OWINGS MILLS, Md. (AP) — Baltimore Ravens cornerback and 2024 first-round draft pick Nate Wiggins was carted off the field roughly an hour into Tuesday's practice after suffering a left leg injury.
Wiggins tangled with rookie wide receiver Ja'Kobi Lane during one-on-one drills and fell to the turf. He appeared unable to put weight on the leg as he entered the team facility.
Asked about the potential seriousness of the injury, first-year head coach Jesse Minter said Wiggins was still being evaluated.
"Not a whole lot," Minter responded. "I think there's optimism, but again, we'll look at it, we'll see where it's at. It's one of those plays, really not much between the two guys in the play. So whether it was hitting the ground or whatever it was, we'll see what it looks like."
Wiggins' injury comes two practices after two-time Pro Bowl wide receiver Zay Flowers left Friday's session with a thigh bruise. Flowers returned to limited action Tuesday after missing Sunday's practice.

The Philadelphia Eagles released their first unofficial depth chart of the preseason ahead of Saturday night's matchup against the Baltimore Ravens at M&T Bank Stadium. Compiled by the Eagles Communications department as of Aug. 11, the depth chart offers an initial look at Philadelphia's projected starters, primary reserves and ongoing position competitions.
As always, an unofficial depth chart shouldn't be viewed as a final roster projection. Practice repetitions, injuries, preseason performances, and special teams contributions will continue to shape the roster before Philadelphia makes its initial cuts.

Ravens' Lamar Jackson already 'aggressively' showing his stuff at training camp originally appeared on The Sporting News. Add The Sporting News as a Preferred Source by clicking here.
Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson has something to prove. He's certainly one of the strongest quarterbacks in the league, but last year was tough.
During the 2025 regular season, Jackson played 13 games, passing for 2,549 yards, 21 touchdowns and seven interceptions with a 103.8 passer rating. He also rushed for 349 yards and two touchdowns, according to NFL research.
It was good but not good enough to get the Ravens to make noise in the postseason. Now, Jackson is already out to prove that he's still one of the hottest players in the league.
Jeremy Fowler, Dan Graziano and Ben Solak of ESPN are reporting from NFL training camps this month. Their latest report shows that Jackson means business.

Baltimore Ravens cornerback Nate Wiggins was carted off at practice on Tuesday. Reports were that it looked like he suffered a lower-body injury, either to his left leg or knee.
ESPN's Jamison Hensley reported that Wiggins was unable to put any weight on his leg when he was going into the team facility and had to be ***** isted by trainers.
After the injury, head coach Jesse Minter said he didn't have much more information to add. He did say that, "I think there's optimism."

The Ravens are hoping for the best for cornerback Nate Wiggins.
Wiggins had to be carted off the field at Thursday's practice. Reports from the practice field say Wiggins couldn't put weight on his left leg after his feet got tangled with wide receiver Ja'Kobi Lane during a drill.
After practice, head coach Jesse Minter said there is optimism that Wiggins avoided a major injury but that things are still being evaluated.
"Don't have a ton of information on that yet. We'll kinda get it looked at, see where it's at," Minter said.
Wiggins started every game for the Ravens last season and finished the year with 76 tackles, three interceptions and 14 passes defensed.

The Baltimore Ravens won't have to wait until the regular season to see how their defense responds to one of the NFL's most difficult quarterbacks to contain. Minnesota has named Kyler Murray its starting quarterback, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. The decision adds another layer of intrigue to Baltimore's upcoming trip to Minnesota for two joint practices with the Vikings.
Following Saturday's preseason matchup against the Eagles at M&T Bank Stadium, the Ravens will practice against Minnesota on Aug. 19 and 20 before the teams meet in a preseason game at U.S. Bank Stadium on Aug. 22. The practice sessions could provide Baltimore's starters with their most valuable work against an opposing offense before Week 1.
Murray's arm talent alone would make the two practices worthwhile for Baltimore's secondary. His ability to escape pressure, extend plays and create outside the structure of an offense will test every level of Jesse Minter's defense.
Marlon Humphrey, Nate Wiggins, Chidobe Awuzie, Kyle Hamilton and Malaki Starks will be challenged to remain disciplined when Murray leaves the pocket. Coverage responsibilities don't disappear once the original play breaks down. They often become more difficult as receivers adjust their routes and defenders are forced to cover for an additional three or four seconds.
That will make communication essential. Baltimore's defensive backs have consistently disrupted the passing game during training camp, but facing Murray and Minnesota's collection of pass catchers will offer a more revealing evaluation than competing against the same teammates every day.

Ahead of the Colts's joint practice Tuesday morning with the New England Patriots, Colts general manager Chris Ballard gave reporters an update on wide receiver Alec Pierce's rehab from late-March ankle surgery. Ballard said Pierce has had no setbacks in his recovery and had not received an additional platelet-rich plasma injection in his ankle since his surgery.
Ballard said Pierce's rehab process has "had its ups and downs" as the receiver "finds his new normal."
"We feel good about where he's at. We feel positivly about where' he's headed," Ballard said.
The Colts GM said the team is taking Pierce's recovery process "day-by-day" and would not offer any timeline on when he might return. Ballard said the team's plan still is for Pierce to return in time for the team's regular season opener Sept. 13 at Lucas Oil Stadium against the Ravens.
Separately, Ballard said that cornerback Charvarius Ward experienced back pain and irritation following Sunday's practice and did not travel with the team to New England. He will not participate in either this week's joint practice or Thursday's preseason opener.

Training-camp praise in the NFL is cheap. This is not that. ESPN Ravens reporter Jamison Hensley covers the Baltimore Ravens. After watching rookie Ja'Kobi Lane this summer, even he reached for language you almost never hear from someone who has seen this many camps.
"In 27 years of covering the Ravens, I'm not sure I've seen a rookie have a training camp quite like wide receiver Ja'Kobi Lane." That is a ridiculous statement – and Lane keeps giving him evidence.

The Baltimore Ravens have completed more than a week of physical training camp practices. Saturday's preseason opener against the Philadelphia Eagles will provide Jesse Minter and his staff with a different type of evaluation.
The question is how many established starters will participate.
Baltimore has several stars with nothing to prove during an exhibition game. The Ravens also have newcomers learning new systems, rookies competing for important roles and several position battles that won't be settled until later in the preseason. Here is an early projection of which Ravens could sit and which players have legitimate reasons to play against Philadelphia.
Jackson hasn't appeared in a preseason game since 2021, and there is little reason to believe Baltimore will change its approach Saturday.
Declan Doyle's new offense creates an argument for giving Jackson limited work, but the Ravens can generate valuable repetitions during three upcoming joint practices. Protecting their two-time MVP should remain the priority.

#jackson

The Baltimore Ravens will host the Philadelphia Eagles in Saturday night's preseason opener, providing the first look at Jesse Minter's team against an NFL opponent.
Whether Lamar Jackson will be part of that debut remains uncertain.
Minter hasn't announced a plan for Jackson or Baltimore's other established starters. The decision presents an interesting debate because the Ravens are installing a new offense under coordinator Declan Doyle while adjusting to a new coaching staff. Jackson would benefit from facing an unfamiliar defense. Baltimore must weigh those potential gains against the obvious risk of injury to its franchise quarterback from playing in an exhibition game.
Jackson's last preseason appearance came in 2021. The Ravens have become increasingly cautious with their most important players, preferring to generate competitive work during training camp and joint practices.
Baltimore has three joint practices scheduled later this summer. The Ravens will work against the Minnesota Vikings before the second preseason game and host the Washington Commanders ahead of the finale. Those sessions can provide Jackson with game-like repetitions in a more controlled environment. According to Baltimore's official website, joint practices are one reason most starters could remain sidelined until Week 1.

BALTIMORE — Toward the end of the Baltimore Ravens' practice Sunday, I reached for my phone to type another note and discovered it had overheated.
The heat index had climbed into the 90s, and the device had spent more than two hours baking under the late-morning sun. My scorching work phone tapped out before the Ravens did.
Players pushed through more than 100 snaps in pads during the longest and most intense practice of training camp. Sunday's session was scheduled to last 2 1/2 hours but wrapped after 2 hours, 7 minutes. The first-team offense and defense operated primarily at "thud" pace, making contact without tackling to the ground, while the reserves did full tackling.
Two weeks into camp, the Ravens are beginning to resemble the team first-year coach Jesse Minter hoped to build when he was hired this offseason.
They practice hard. They fly around. They look physical.

As has been stated repeatedly throughout the offseason, the Baltimore Ravens are navigating unfamiliar territory. A franchise known for stability has undergone significant change in a relatively short period of time. Coordinators have departed. Jesse Minter became only the fourth head coach in franchise history.
New voices have been added throughout the building and on the roster, with veteran Calais Campbell among the most significant of the latter. He's certainly a great veteran pickup for a young defense with stars or stars in the making at every level. Much of the focus has naturally centered on how all of those changes are being received by the players expected to lead Baltimore's next chapter.
When Lamar Jackson, Derrick Henry, Roquan Smith, Kyle Hamilton or Zay Flowers speak, people listen. Their opinions often become headlines because of their stature within the organization. Recently, however, one of the most telling endorsements came from a quieter voice. Running back Justice Hill may not command the same spotlight as some of Baltimore's biggest stars, but his perspective on new offensive coordinator Declan Doyle is worth noting.
Recently, he spoke with media members after a practice and complimented new offensive coordinator Declan Doyle, calling him "the most detail-oriented" offensive coordinator that he's worked with.
At first glance, the comment might sound like routine training camp praise. The context makes it far more interesting. Hill isn't comparing Doyle to an unknown list of ****** istants. During his seven seasons in Baltimore, he has played for Greg Roman and Todd Monken. Those are pretty detailed offensive minds in their own right.

Baltimore Ravens rookie wide receiver Ja'Kobi Lane has become one of training camp's biggest stories. The spectacular catches have continued to pile up, teammates are celebrating his plays, and the coaching staff is beginning to discuss how he might fit into the offense.
Lane hears the growing buzz. He simply isn't allowing it to become more important than his own expectations.
"At the end of the day, you're only as confident as you can be in your own head," Lane said, according to ESPN's Jamison Hensley.
That perspective should be encouraging for a Ravens team watching one of its youngest players attract more attention with every practice. Training camp success can create confidence, but praise from the outside can disappear just as quickly. Lane appears to understand that the confidence to survive a difficult practice or a disappointing game must come from within.
Lane's highlights haven't come against passive competition. He has routinely faced one of Baltimore's deepest position groups, battling defensive backs determined to make every catch difficult.

The Detroit Lions announced a flurry of roster moves ahead of Sunday's training camp practice. They officially placed Teddy Bridgewater on the reserve/retired list, they've signed cornerback Ryan Cooper and linebacker Amen Ogbongbemiga, and they've waived tight end Nick Muse.
Bridgewater's move to the retirement list comes minutes after Dan Campbell announced the veteran quarterback is stepping away.
"I've known Teddy a long time, and, man, the human being is unbelievable," Campbell said. "Certainly the player, everything he's about, the teammate that he is, the way he prepares. Always played the game up here and had a huge heart. He's going to be missed."

Campbell said the team intends to sign a veteran backup quarterback, and hopes to do so by Monday.
Cooper was one of three defenders who tried out for the Lions over the weekend. He last played football with the Birmingham Stallions of the UFL, posting 25 tackles, four pass breakups and an interception in nine games. At 5-foot-11, 184 pounds, Cooper has only made one game appearance at the NFL level, playing six special teams snaps for the Baltimore Ravens in 2024. Detroit needed a little cornerback depth while D.J. Reed is sidelined with a minor groin injury and the Lions waived De'Shawn Rucker with an injury designation.
Ogbongbemiga has been in the NFL for five seasons, appearing in 72 games and making three starts since 2021. He went undrafted in the NFL but was a first-round pick in the CFL in 2021. He opted to go the NFL route, making the Los Angeles Chargers 53-man roster as a rookie and appearing in 15 games. He lasted two more years with the Chargers, playing mostly on special teams—932 snaps on teams over three years.

Few coaches are better positioned to compare the Baltimore Ravens' running backs room to another NFL backfield than Eddie Faulkner. Hired to serve as running backs coach on Jesse Minter's staff, he most recently spent seven seasons with the Pittsburgh Steelers. He helped develop and oversee multiple productive rushing attacks. That experience gives weight to his recent ****** sment of Baltimore's group, and it was a notable endorsement.
Faulkner recently said the Steelers' running backs room he coached last season was strong. At the same time, he suggested the Ravens' current collection of backs may be every bit as talented—if not better.
That's a significant yet unsurprising statement considering what Baltimore already has at the top of the depth chart. Any discussion about the Ravens' running backs begins with Derrick Henry.
Most won't need to be reminded of this, but it's worth another mention. The future Hall of Famer, Derrick Henry, enters another season as one of the most accomplished players at his position. Faulkner made it clear that Henry's resume speaks for itself.
"He could not take another snap and he's going to get a gold jacket."

#backs

Training camp highlights can be deceiving. Every summer, we've seen familiar trends at every Baltimore Ravens workout session. Rookies make spectacular catches on offense, defenders generate excitement, and unknown talent inspires predictions about breakout seasons.
Some arrive. Some never do. The challenge for coaches is separating a good practice from signs of something more meaningful. Ja'Kobi Lane may be forcing that conversation. The rookie wide receiver continued his impressive training camp on Saturday and Sunday, adding more eye-catching plays to what has become one of the strongest camps by a Ravens newcomer.
Let's talk about Saturday. Those in attendance, including ESPN's Jamison Hensley, mentioned one instance where he beat cornerback Nate Wiggins on a deep route for a touchdown during a one-on-one drill. Later, he hauled in a one-handed back-shoulder catch from Tyler Huntley roughly 25 yards downfield.
The catches drew attention.
The reaction afterward may have been even more significant.

The Philadelphia Eagles failed to repeat as Super Bowl champions in 2025 in no small part part due to an underwhelming offense. Entering 2026, there's hope that they've righted the ship on that front as the Birds look to get back on top of the NFC. Eagles fans are feeling optimistic about the direction of the team under new offensive coordinator Sean Mannion. There's also a high level of confidence in Vic Fangio, who could conceivably oversee the best defense in the NFL.
Given that Nick Sirianni and Jalen Hurts have never not made the playoffs since they were first paired together in 2021, failing to qualify for the postseason in 2026 would be a surprise. FanDuel has the Eagles' win total at 10.5 games.

The Baltimore Ravens entered their 30th season last September hoping to rebound from a disappointing Divisional Round exit in January 2025. Instead, they found more frustration. They struggled to find consistency. A heartbreaking Week 17 loss ensured they'd be watching the postseason from home. That fueled an offseason search for answers. One of the questions asked was about a four-time Pro Bowler/ two-time First-Team All-Pro.
Not long ago, Marlon Humphrey found himself at the center of one of the biggest offseason conversations. Scrutiny led to a common question. Might Baltimore move on? Few players drew more attention as being on the 'hot seat.'
Some questioned whether the former All-Pro had lost a step. Others wondered how much injuries had impacted his performance. His sizable contract only amplified the discussion, as Humphrey enters a season carrying a cap hit north of $26 million.
Inside the Ravens' building, however, there appears to be little concern. Humphrey admits to battling injury in 2025, but also ***** ures that he's now healthy. Head coach Jesse Minter recently offered a strong endorsement of the veteran cornerback, making it clear he believes Humphrey remains a critical piece of Baltimore's defense.
"I've got a lot of confidence in Marlon Humphrey," Coach Minter stated while addresing the media after practice... "I think he's really embraced some of the technical changes."

Ravens head coach Jesse Minter gave an update on wide receiver Zay Flowers after Flowers left Saturday's practice early.
Minter said, via multiple reporters, that Flowers suffered a quad contusion when he collided with defensive back Jaylinn Hawkins during the workout. Minter called Flowers day-to-day and said that he does not expect the wideout to miss a significant amount of time.
The injury added to an eventful week for Flowers. He signed a four-year, $140 million extension with the team on Wednesday.
The Ravens will have another padded practice on Sunday and they will host the Eagles in their first preseason game next Saturday.
