The Baltimore Ravens have hired Marcus Brady as their new passing game coordinator, reuniting him with former Chargers defensive coordinator Jesse Minter, who was recently named the Ravens' new offensive coordinator.

Why it matters

The Ravens are looking to improve their passing attack to complement star quarterback Lamar Jackson's dynamic running ability. Brady's background working with top QBs like Philip Rivers, Jalen Hurts and Justin Herbert should help him develop Jackson's skills as a passer.

Prior to that, he was the offensive coordinator for the Indianapolis Colts for two seasons. Brady has also coached in the Canadian Football League, winning three Grey Cup championships as a receivers coach and offensive coordinator.
