The Baltimore Ravens are shaking things up on offense, and if you ask tight end Mark Andrews, this could be just the boost Lamar Jackson needs to take his game to the next level. With the arrival of new offensive coordinator Declan Doyle, Andrews sees a fresh playbook that’s unlike anything he and Jackson have tackled in their NFL journey.
Andrews, in a chat with CBS Sports, shared his excitement about the new offensive scheme. "This is a different offense than we’ve been a part of since we got into the league - it’s totally different than anything we’ve done," he said.
He’s confident that Jackson will not only adapt but thrive, adding, “I think [Jackson’s] going to make it his own, adapt to it and be the best that there is. That’s the type of person that he is and that’s the type of guys and coaches that we have.
I think that’s a scary sight when you see Lamar Jackson adding new things to his repertoire.”
This offensive overhaul follows the Ravens' decision to part ways with longtime head coach John Harbaugh after the 2025 season, bringing in a fresh coaching crew with Doyle at the offensive helm. At just 29, Doyle is already making waves as one of the youngest coordinators in the NFL, yet he brings nearly a decade of experience to the table.
Doyle’s coaching journey kicked off as a student assistant at Iowa, followed by a stint with the New Orleans Saints as an offensive assistant. He then moved on to coach tight ends with the Denver Broncos before joining the Chicago Bears. There, he played a key role in turning around an offense that leaped from dead last in total yards in 2024 to a respectable sixth place in 2025.
Now, Doyle faces the challenge of unlocking even more potential in one of the league’s standout quarterbacks. If Andrews’ insights are anything to go by, the Ravens are poised for an exciting chapter with Jackson potentially reaching new heights under this innovative offensive system, guided by new head coach Jesse Minter. The Ravens’ faithful have every reason to be optimistic about what’s brewing in Baltimore.

Ravens Fans Just Got Two Health Warnings And One Major Change
The Ravens headed into the summer with a couple of health updates that matter at the margins of a roster trying to stay intact. Cornerback Nate Wiggins underwent offseason surgery to address lingering issues, a reminder that even young players expected to help shape the depth chart can spend part of the calendar getting back to full strength.
The bigger offseason buzz around the team also includes a notable change behind the microphone, plus a chance for fans to get an early look at camp in a public setting. Baltimore will hold a free training camp practice at SECU Stadium in College Park on Aug. 1, giving supporters a summer date to circle as the team continues sorting out health, depth and the familiar rhythms of a new season.

Mike Green's Strange Offseason Could Change Everything For Ravens Pass Rush
Mike Greens first season in Baltimore did not look like the breakout the Ravens hoped for, with the edge rusher finishing at 3.5 sacks in 17 games. Even so, he remains one of the more intriguing young pieces in the pass-rush mix, and his offseason work has already turned heads for reasons that go beyond the weight room.
Green recently posted a video of himself sumo wrestling, an unusual choice that fits the kind of developmental questions that have followed him. He has long faced scrutiny over whether he can set the edge with enough consistency, and over the play strength and contact balance that show up in those battles. If that work carries over, the Ravens could have another useful layer for a pass rush that is expected to keep getting stronger in 2026 under Jesse Minter. [Read more 🡒]
Zion Young Could Answer A Huge Ravens Defensive Question Fast
Zion Young has already become one of the quieter reasons the Ravens feel better about their defensive front heading into the summer. The second-round pick drew notice in OTAs and minicamp for his physical style before the pads even came on, and that early showing fits what Baltimore has been looking for as the defense works through a fairly major offseason reset with Trey Hendrickson and Jesse Minter now in the mix.
Youngs appeal is that he does not look like a one-trick edge player. He was a strong run stopper in college and is expected to bring that same edge-setting presence to Baltimore while also rushing the passer and potentially sliding inside when the matchup calls for it. For a defense that could use another versatile piece who helps against the run without disappearing on passing downs, Young might end up answering a big question sooner rather than later.
