Ravens' 56-man roster as off-season workouts begin
· Yahoo Sports
The Baltimore Ravens are set to begin their nine-week offseason workout program on Monday. Here's a full look at the current 56-man roster, including key veterans, new additions, and players battling for early positioning heading into OTAs.
The NFL just announced its nine-week off-season workout routine for all 32 teams. The training programs are divided into three phases: one mandatory minicamp for the entire roster and one rookie minicamp for each group. Key offseason dates, beginning with media availability on April 8 at the Under Armour Performance Center, are subject to earlier start times thanks to Jesse Minter's hiring and an overhauled coaching staff. The schedule includes the rookie minicamp in early May, OTAs starting May 18, and mandatory minicamp in June, with multiple media access opportunities throughout the program.

Phase One consists of the first two weeks of the program, during which activities are limited to meetings, strength and conditioning, and physical rehabilitation only.
Phase Two consists of the next three weeks of the program and includes on-field workouts, which may involve individual or group instruction.
Phase Three consists of the next four weeks of the program, during which teams may conduct ten days of organized team practice activities, or "OTAs."
No live contact is permitted, but 7-on-7, 9-on-7, and 11-on-11 drills are allowed.

56-man roster ahead of NFL draft
Quarterback
Players on roster:
#8 Lamar Jackson
#5 Tyler Huntley
Comment:
Jackson and the Ravens agreed on a restructured contract that created nearly $40 million in salary cap space. Still, there's no word on whether he'll participate in the voluntary portions of workouts and the nine OTAs before the two days of mandatory minicamp in June. Jackson has been working out in Florida and looks sharp after an injury-plagued 2025. The Ravens won't have to search for a backup quarterback after re-signing Tyler Huntley and releasing Cooper Rush. Baltimore could look to the draft for a third quarterback.
Running back
Players on the roster:
#22 Derrick Henry
#43 Justice Hill
#26 Rasheen Ali
#47 Fulback Lucas Scott
Comments
The current roster has Henry, Justice Hill returning from injury, and Rasheen Ali, who, after Keaton Mitchell wasn't tendered, joined the Chargers on a two-year deal. More depth could be added via the draft. With Patrick Ricard joining the Giants, second-year undrafted free agent Lucas Scott is the only fullback remaining, and his time could be coming to an end. New offensive coordinator Declan Doyle prefers to use a tight end in an H-Back role over the traditional fullback.
Wide receiver
Players on the roster:
#7 Rashod Bateman
#4 Zay Flowers
#81 Devontez Walker
#83 LaJohntay Wester
#86 Cornelius Johnson
#82 Dayton Wade
Comments:
The look and hierarchy of this group could change over the next few weekends, depending on what happens in Rounds 1 and 2 of the NFL draft. The Ravens are expected to pick up Zay Flowers' $27.3 million fifth-year option after back-to-back Pro Bowls. Rashod Bateman is under contract through 2029 and has been the subject of trade talks following an injury-filled 2025 season. With DeAndre Hopkins not expected to return, the depth behind the big two is limited. Devontez Walker is a touchdown machine but remains unproven heading into Year 3. LaJohntay Wester will return punts, while Cornelius Johnson and Dayton Wade are likely to have roles on the practice squad. With Trey Hendrickson on the roster and John Simpson back, Baltimore could target a wide receiver in Round 1.
Tight end
Players on the roster:
#89 Mark Andrews
N/A Durham Smythe
Comments:
The Mark Andrews era will continue in Baltimore, after the Ravensagreed to terms on a three-year, $39.3 million extension with the franchise's all-time leading catcher. The deal includes $26 million in guaranteed money. Andrews was slated to hit free agency this spring, but now, he'll remain, while Isaiah Likely and Charlie Kolar depart for the Giants and Chargers. The $13.1M per year average makes Andrews the sixth-highest-paid tight end in terms of average annual value, behind the Cleveland Browns' David Njoku and ahead of the Cowboys' Jake Ferguson. The Ravens added veteran Durham Smythe in Free agency, and Baltimore could again double-dip at the position in the draft.
Offensive line
Players on the roster:
#79 Ronnie Stanley
#72 Andrew Vorhees
#70 Roger Rosengarten
#51 Emery Jones Jr.
#71 Carson Vinson
#78 Gerad Christian-Lichtenhan
#63 Jared Penning
#67 Corey Bullock
N/A Danny Pinter
N/A Jovaughn Gwyn
Comments:
With three-time Pro Bowl Tyler Linderbaum in Las Vegas as the highest-paid center in NFL history, the Ravens could choose to draft a center. Former Maryland star and undrafted free agent Corey Bullock could be a player to watch, while Jovaughn Gwyn offers positional versatility. At guard, veteran John Simpson returns after spending his past two seasons with the New York Jets, while Eric DeCosta has raved about last year's third-round pick Emery Jones Jr. Andrew Vorhees returns. Baltimore's offensive tackles are solid starters, Ronnie Stanley and Roger Rosengarten, but they only have 2025 fifth-round pick Carson Vinson and 2025 undrafted free agent Gerad Lichtenhan as reserves.
Defensive line
Players on the roster:
#92 Nnamdi Madubuike
#96 Broderick Washington
#98 Travis Jones
#94 John Jenkins
#93 Aeneas Peebles
#65 David Olajiga
#91 Basil Okoye
Comments:
Madubuike missed most of this season with a neck injury, and there's been talk of a potential retirement. Still, a recent workout video has sparked optimism, even as the Ravens remain vague about his status in the off-season. Travis Jones, veteran John Jenkins, second-year sixth-round pick Aeneas Peebles, third-year former undrafted free agent C.J. Okoye, and second-year David Olajiga offer depth with training camp approaching. Broderick Washington could be a salary cap casualty.
Edge rusher
Players on the roster:
#91 Trey Hendrickson
#95 Tavius Robinson
#45 Mike Green
#50 Adisa Isaac
#56 Kaimon Rucker
#48 Carl Jones Jr
Comments:
Hendrickson is the big fish and the guy who'll close games out when the Ravens have a lead. Second-round pick Mike Green returns after posting 3.5 sacks in 2025, and 2023 fourth-round pick Tavius Robinson returns after dealing with injury but posting 4.5 sacks. Adisa Isaac and second-year Kaimon Rucker offer depth.
Inside linebacker
Players on roster:
#0 Roquan Smith
#32 Trenton Simpson
#40 Teddye Buchanan
#49 Jay Higgins
Comments:
The 29-year-old Roquan Smith had another 100+ tackle season and is under contract for two more seasons. Still, the countdown has begun for when Baltimore moves on from the perennial Pro Bowl pick. Teddye Buchanan is coming off a torn ACL that he suffered in Week 15, while Trenton Simpson is entering the final year of his rookie deal. Jay Higgins IV and Carl Jones offer depth.
Cornerback
Players on the roster:
#3 Chidobe Awuzie
#44 Marlon Humphrey
#2 Nate Wiggins
#27 T.J. Tampa
#37 Robert Longerbeam
#36 Amani Oruwariye
#38 Keyon Martin
#31 Bilhal Kone
#28 Marquise Robinson
Comments:
Veteran Marlon Humphrey is on the roster and expected to have a prominent role despite his $26M cap hit. Nate Wiggins is entering his third year, and the Ravens re-signed Chidobe Awuzie. That's a solid trio when Humphrey is efficient. T.J. Tampa is entering his third season but has yet to play meaningful snaps on defense. In contrast, 2025 undrafted free agent Keyon Martin played critical snaps after Bilhal Kone and Robert Longerbeam both suffered serious injuries during their rookie seasons. Veteran Amani Oruwariye and second-year Marquise Robinson offer practice squad depth.
Safety
Players on the roster:
#14 Kyle Hamilton
#24 Malaki Starks
N/A Jaylinn Hawkins
#39 Keondre Jackson
Comment:
After Ar'Darius Washington and Alohi Gilman both left in free agency, Baltimore added former Patriots defensive back Jaylinn Hawkins as the much-preferred third safety. Hawkins is a solid and efficient complement to the dynamic duo.
He'll join All-Pro Kyle Hamilton and last year's first-round pick Malaki Starks. Second-year undrafted free agent Keondre Jackson is a special teams standout who'll look to improve in coverage.
Long snapper
#46 Nick Moore
The Ravens signed veteran long snapper Nick Moore to a four-year extension in January, keeping him in Baltimore through the 2029 season.
Punter
All-Pro Jordan Stout signed with the New York Giants, making him the NFL's highest-paid punter. Baltimore will look to duplicate success in back-to-back drafts.
Kicker
#33 Tyler Loop
Tyler Loop will return after missing a 44-yard game-winning field goal attempt in Pittsburgh, ending the Ravens' playoff hopes with a Week 18 loss to the Steelers. Overall, Loop, who was drafted in the sixth round last season, connected on 30 of his 34 field goal attempts. Loop's 88.2% conversion rate ranked fourth among rookie kickers over the past five seasons, trailing Cameron Dicker (95.5%), Brandon Aubrey (94.7%), and Cam Little (93.1%).
