Baltimore Ravens Eye Bigger Roles for Key Players

The Baltimore Ravens are looking to key players to step up in 2026, with Devontez Walker and Trenton Simpson poised for bigger roles.

What's driving the change?

The Ravens' new play caller, Declan Doyle, is expected to increase opportunities for wide receivers like Walker.

Walker has already shown promise, with four of his nine career receptions resulting in touchdowns.

Who else is in line for a bigger role?

Trenton Simpson, entering his fourth year, believes his versatility will play well in the new scheme.

Simpson had a career-high 2.5 sacks last season, along with 66 tackles.

What about the defensive side?

Mike Green, who had a solid rookie season with 3.5 sacks, is looking to capitalize on more opportunities.

Green's Defensive Coordinator, Anthony Weaver, made a cut-up tape highlighting his "almost" sacks from 2025.

The Ravens are currently standing 13th in the American Football Conference with a 5-12 record, on a W2 streak.

What's next for the Ravens?

The team's next game is against the Indianapolis Colts on September 13, 2026.

And with players like Walker, Simpson, and Green stepping up, the Ravens are looking to improve their standing.

But for now, the focus is on preparing for the upcoming season.

The Ravens' offense, led by Lamar Jackson, will look to utilize players like Walker and Zay Flowers.

So the team is working hard to get ready for the Colts game.

With the new season approaching, the Ravens are looking to make a strong start.

The team's defense, led by Roquan Smith and Kyle Hamilton, will look to shut down the Colts' offense.

The Ravens are currently preparing for the upcoming season, with a focus on improving their record.
