Ravens Introduce Jesse Minter, Who Will Call the Defense as Staff Takes Shape

Baltimore is keeping its coach–GM–owner structure, with Minter now filling coordinator roles.

Overview

  • Minter confirmed he will be the defensive play-caller and emphasized building a physical, connected team identity.
  • He said coordinator searches are “far along,” with a small group of veteran players involved in finalist interviews, according to GM Eric DeCosta.
  • The offensive coordinator role remains open, with reported candidates Davis Webb, Scottie Montgomery, Declan Doyle and Kliff Kingsbury.
  • Early staff moves include reported hires of offensive line coach Dwayne Ledford, defensive backs coach Mike Mickens and assistant offensive line coach Shawn Flaherty.
