Ravens GM Eric DeCosta said the Jets have added "exceptional football guys" in former Ravens assistants Joe Douglas, Chad Alexander and Phil Savage.

Ravens defensive back Cyrus Jones was absent from Tuesday's minicamp because of a health problem.

The two are different in many ways, but they do share a key to success: Holzhauer has missed on only 3% of his responses. Jackson is focused on his accuracy.

The Ravens have signed Pernell McPhee, 30, who was one of the top outside linebackers still available.

The Ravens continued to fill out their roster with veteran free agents Friday, signing Shane Ray and Michael Floyd.

Former Maryland players Byron Cowart, Ty Johnson and Derwin Gray were taken in the final three rounds of the NFL draft.

Darnell Savage Jr.’s rise from a relatively unknown three-star high school prospect reached a once hard-to-imagine peak when the undersized but lightning-fast safety was picked in the first round of the 2019 NFL draft Thursday night.

Chiefs quarterback and reigning NFL MVP Patrick Mahomes will be on the cover of the “Madden NFL 20” video game.

The 2019 NFL schedule came out last week and proved once again that it’s possible for a computer to be a New England Patriots fan. Plus, a look at the Orioles' historic rate of home runs allowed and the Ravens' options in the NFL draft.

The Ravens' 2019 schedule starts off relatively easy. Then it gets difficult, and fast.

The Ravens will play in three prime-time games and face five teams that advanced to the playoffs last season.

The NFL will release the upcoming season schedule at 8 p.m. Wednesday.

For years, coach John Harbaugh has talked about being physical at the point of attack, but the Ravens haven’t invested a lot of top draft picks on offensive linemen.

Alex Ovechkin and the Washington Capitals will get a chance to celebrate their Stanley Cup championship with President Donald Trump at the White House on Monday.

Outside linebacker Terrell Suggs’ best chance of returning to the Ravens might have ended when Ozzie Newsome stepped down as general manager this offseason and was replaced by Eric DeCosta.

Establishing a national holiday on the day after these events would not eliminate all workplace inefficiency on those days, but it would significantly reduce the amount of hours lost in missed work and low productivity of the post-event Walking Dead.

If Cody Ford learned anything from the combine experience of Ravens tackle Orlando Brown Jr. last year, it’s that 40-yard-dash times shouldn’t define you.

The Ravens had the sixth-most expensive average ticket price in the NFL last season, according to Statista.

Fred Jackson's long relationship with new Maryland football coach Michael Locksley played a significant role in his son Josh's decision to play for the Terps as a graduate transfer.

If the Ravens want to build on last season’s playoff run, they can look to the Patriots for blueprints.

Each year the NFL becomes even more average and that forces the coaching gap between Bill Belichick and the other coaches to become greater.

The Ravens' odds to win the next Super Bowl are the 11th-best.

Carroll County Times staff, along with local coaches and players, share their predictions for Sunday's Super Bowl LIII between the Los Angeles Rams and New England Patriots.

Let’s be honest, you’re going to watch the Super Bowl tonight. You might feel indifferent about the two teams playing if you’re one of the many who will tune into the Super Bowl so you have something to talk about at the office tomorrow morning, so I've put together this rooting guide.

Reed joined former teammates Jonathan Ogden and Ray Lewis as he breezed to election in the first year he was eligible.

Ed Reed left a unique mark on the Ravens and the NFL in his 12 years as a big-play safety. On Saturday, Reed could become the third homegrown Raven, after Jonathan Ogden and Ray Lewis, to make the Pro Football Hall of Fame in his first year of eligibility.

The Woodlawn native and Super Bowl-bound linbacker has emerged as a special teams contributor for the Rams.

The lawsuit filed in New Orleans over the terrible officiating error in the NFC title game isn't going to cancel the Super Bowl, but it is going to shame the league into fixing the holes in its inadequate replay system.

Under Harbaugh’s previous contract, he was set to become a highly coveted coaching free agent after the 2019 season.

Before the NFL considers making pass interference calls subject to replay review, the league might want to consider what will happen in the future.

Sunday's conference championship games were exciting, competitive and featured some of the league’s best coaches, but poor officiating dominated the conversation. It’s just another Sunday in the NFL.

The blown pass interference call in last night's NFC championship game not only embarrassed the league, it almost certainly sent the wrong team to the Super Bowl. That was entirely preventable.

Ravens coach John Harbaugh became the subject of possible trade speculation as his team made a playoff push before reportedly nearing a contract extension Saturday.

Most Ravens fans hate Tom Brady and the entitled New England Patriots anyway, but they have other reasons for rooting for Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs. He is the embodiment of their hopes for Lamar Jackson.

Regardless if he ever wins a Super Bowl, Andy Reid has been successful and is one of the most respected coaches in the NFL. But if he gets to the summit, it will be special.

There is a canonical list of clichés about how and why Ravens fans should be positive after this season. It was apparent during their Jan. 6th game, in which the team lost to the Los Angeles Chargers, that the supporters of the Purple and Black have become soured, cynical and ungrateful.

Lamar Jackson has long admired New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady. "I want to bring the Super Bowl here," the young Raven said. "I want to be the [Tom] Brady [of Baltimore]. I want to be the Brady. Bring multiple, if I could."

The Ravens season-ending loss at M&T Bank Stadium was only the second overall for Lamar Jackson since taking over as a starter in Week 11. The Chargers won, 23-17.

Here are the fatal flaws for the entire NFL playoff field.

The Ravens' 26-24 win secured the AFC’s No. 4 seed. They’ll face the fifth-seeded Los Angeles Chargers again next weekend, this time in Baltimore.

The Ravens-Chargers wild-card game will be broadcast on CBS. The Ravens last hosted a playoff game in 2012.

After a 22-10 win Saturday over the Los Angeles Chargers and the Pittsburgh Steelers’ loss Sunday to the New Orleans Saints, the Ravens (9-6) could win the AFC North and earn the No. 4 seed even without a win in Week 17 over the Cleveland Browns.

It is the unwritten rule that almost everyone seems to accept as fact: If John Harbaugh’s Ravens do not make the playoffs, he will be fired as head coach. That might be true, but with a caveat: If the Ravens get into the playoffs and lose ugly in the first round, Harbaugh could be fired, too.

Teams that were super earlier this season like Kansas City, New Orleans, the Los Angeles Rams and even the New England Patriots now appear vulnerable and beatable.

The Ravens rushed for 242 yards in Sunday’s win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, the fourth time they’ve cleared 200 in the past five games.

But after Sunday's win vs. Tampa Bay, there is only so much the Ravens can control in the AFC playoff picture.

The win against the Buccaneers was the Ravens’ fourth in five games with Lamar Jackson starting, but the team got only modest early help from the rest of the conference’s wild-card contenders.

By Sunday night, the Ravens could be atop the AFC North, possibly headed for a home playoff game.

Especially in December, there are no upsides for NFL playoff hopefuls like the Ravens in losing a close game against a top-quality opponent.
