During the NFL Combine, Baltimore Ravens head coach Jesse Minter joined The Pat McAfee Show and was asked whether he had visited Tyler Linderbaum and made it clear the team wants him back. Minter didn’t hesitate when discussing how highly the Ravens view their All-Pro center and what he has meant to the offense over the last few seasons.
“He he knows how we feel about him. Um he’s one of the best in the business. He’s maybe the best center, one of the best linemen, period. Major part of of the team the last few years. Uh you’ve really seen him develop into that, you know, since they drafted him. Uh guy we’d love to have back.”
The message from Minter was direct: Linderbaum isn’t just another starter on the offensive line. He’s viewed as one of the premier players at his position and a foundational piece of what the Ravens want to be offensively. From anchoring the interior to setting the tone in the run game, Linderbaum has grown into exactly the type of player Baltimore envisioned when they drafted him. And based on Minter’s comments, it’s clear the organization wants that partnership to continue.
