The Baltimore Ravens missed the 2025 NFL playoffs after a dramatic Week 18 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers. Rookie place kicker Tyler Loop missed a game-winning field goal in the final seconds of regulation to end John Harbaugh\u2019s tenure with the Ravens. <\/p>\n
Jesse Minter took over after the Ravens fired the one-time Super Bowl champion, set to start a new era at M&T Bank Stadium. Minter is a defensive-minded coach, but he will have Declan Doyle pulling the strings on the other side of the ball. Meanwhile, one of his biggest stars, Derrick Henry, is working to recruit a star wide receiver to join him and Lamar Jackson.<\/p>\n
During an appearance on Kay Adams\u2019 \u201cUp & Adams\u201d show, the veteran running back sent a message to former Tennessee Titans wide receiver A.J. Brown to join the Ravens this offseason.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019d gladly love to have him,\u201d Henry said when talking about rumors linking Brown to the Ravens. \u201cA.J.\u2019s a dog. I played with A.J. in Tennessee with Vrabes [Mike Vrabel]\u2026 Come on over! A.J., come to Baltimore. Let\u2019s go get this ring. You got one in Philly.\u201d<\/p>\n
Brown caught<\/a> 78 passes for 1,003 yards and seven touchdowns in 2025. His season finished on a low note, as he dropped multiple passes and was seen going at it with Nick Sirianni during the wild-card round loss to the San Francisco 49ers.<\/p>\n NFL insider predicts Eagles will eventually trade A.J. Brown<\/p>\n Speaking with PHLY Sports at Super Bowl opening night, Dianna Russini of The Athletic said that she sees a trade<\/a> involving Brown happening, given the tensions between the player and the team.<\/p>\n \u201cI have a feeling it\u2019s going to resolve itself by A.J. no longer being in Philly,\u201d Russini said. \u201cThat\u2019s where I think it\u2019s going to head. I don\u2019t know that for a fact yet.\u201d<\/p>\n The insider noted that a second-round pick could unlock negotiations with the Eagles.<\/p>\n \u2014 Enjoy free coverage of the top news & trending stories on The Big Lead <\/a>\u2014<\/p>\n NFL: Ranking the greatest Super Bowl quarterback performances<\/a><\/p>\n NBA: Bucks star Giannis Antetokounmpo\u2019s mom hints at next NBA team<\/a><\/p>\n MLB: Mets sign former Dodgers World Series champion<\/a><\/p>\n SPORTS MEDIA: Mattress Mack reveals massive $2 million Super Bowl 60 wager<\/a><\/p>\n ENTERTAINMENT: WWE star calls Pat McAfee to reveal shocking 2026 Royal Rumble return<\/a><\/p>\n
