The Baltimore Ravens are rolling out a new-look offense in 2026 under new head coach Jesse Minter and offensive coordinator Declan Doyle. Quarterback Lamar Jackson, tight end Mark Andrews, and wide receiver Zay Flowers are excited about the team's plans to be more 'electric' and 'explosive' this season, moving away from the traditional fullback setup and giving Jackson more weapons to work with.

Why it matters

After a disappointing 2025 season, the Ravens are shaking things up on offense, hoping to unlock more big plays and take pressure off Jackson to create everything from scratch. Andrews and Flowers are expected to play bigger roles in the new scheme, which could boost their production and help the Ravens return to the playoffs.

The details

The Ravens' new offense will feature a more diverse run game that focuses on finding space rather than straight-ahead power. They've also moved away from the traditional fullback setup, using more versatile tight ends who can block, catch passes, and line up in different spots. This should keep the offense less predictable. The offensive line remains a question mark after the loss of center Tyler Linderbaum, but the Ravens are hoping the new scheme will help mask those issues.

  • The Ravens' new offense will debut in the 2026 NFL season.
