The Ravens are turning the page at quarterbacks coach, and they’ve landed a rising name in the coaching ranks. Israel Woolfork is headed to Baltimore to join Jesse Minter’s staff, taking over the QB room after Tee Martin’s departure following the 2025 season.
Woolfork brings with him three years of experience as the Cardinals’ quarterbacks coach, where he helped guide a young and evolving offense through some turbulent seasons. His name has been circulating in coaching circles for a while now-he interviewed for offensive coordinator roles in both Tampa Bay and Chicago over the past two offseasons.
While Arizona previously blocked him from making any lateral moves, the recent head coaching change in the desert cracked that door open. Baltimore didn’t waste time stepping through it.
Now, Woolfork steps into a high-stakes situation in Baltimore, where the expectations are always sky-high with Lamar Jackson under center. After missing the postseason this year, the Ravens are looking for answers-and fast. Woolfork’s job will be to help Jackson sharpen his already elite game, build chemistry with the offensive staff, and get this unit humming again.
There’s a lot to like about this move for Baltimore. Woolfork has shown he can develop quarterbacks and adapt to different systems, and he’s earned respect across the league for his teaching ability and leadership.
Pairing that with a generational talent like Jackson? That’s a combination worth watching.
The Ravens’ offense has the pieces. Now it’s about putting them together. Woolfork’s arrival signals a fresh voice in the quarterbacks room-and potentially a key piece in getting Baltimore back where it expects to be: in the playoff hunt and contending deep into January.
