Key Contributors Toward Ravens Playoff Chances
QB Lamar Jackson didn't win his third league MVP, but the dual-threat QB continues to be the engine of the Ravens offense. To add to the steady run game, veteran RB Derrick Henry is now the focal point in the Ravens backfield. Henry is currently +1400 to win the 2025-26 NFL Offensive Player of the Year Award after posting several strong showings in the 2024 season. Not to be outdone, RB Justice Hill has earned a prominent role behind Henry on the ground and through the air as a solid change-of-pace back.
As expected, WR Rashod Bateman took a massive step forward last season and is now a key piece of the passing game. His contribution has been huge in addition to playmakers Zay Flowers and Mark Andrews. Baltimore also has one of the best "backup" tight ends in the league with Isaiah Likely.
Defensively, the Ravens struggled in the first half of the 2024 season. But the defense went from one of the worst in the NFL to one of the best in the second half of the season. In the 2025 offseason, Baltimore needs to address critical positions on the defense to continue to be a playoff contender.
