Baltimore Ravens (13-4)
OPEN CAMP: July 20, Owings Mills, Md.
LAST YEAR: The Ravens are settled entering the 2024 season compared to the emotional and dramatic offseason one year ago that featured completing a five-year extension with Lamar Jackson, the signing of free agent WR Odell Beckham and the changing offensive coordinators.
KEY ADDITIONS: OT Josh Jones, RB Derrick Henry, OT Roger Rosengarten, CB T.J. Tampa, DT Josh Tupou, CB Nate Wiggins
KEY LOSSES: WR Odell Beckham, edge Jadeveon Clowney, CB Ronald Darby, RB J.K. Dobbins, WR Devin Duvernay, RB Gus Edwards, OT Morgan Moses, LB Patrick Queen, OG John Simpson, OG Kevin Zeitler
CAMP NEEDS: Secondary battles could become hotter and heavier than expected because of the talent level of rookies Wiggins and Tampa. Head coach John Harbaugh expects instant contributions from both with 30th overall pick Wiggins in the picture to crack the starting lineup. Incorporating Henry, a downhill runner with a style all his own, with the darting Jackson is the experiment to watch.
2024 EXPECTATIONS: Another narrow playoff loss to the Kansas City Chiefs burned in Baltimore because the Ravens were out of character in the defeat. Entering the 2024 season, the Ravens are working with a new defensive staff and welcoming a new workhorse in the backfield, shifting away from a co-op at the position. Henry is pairing with Jackson in a fearsome backfield the Ravens believe could ignite the passing game.
