The Baltimore Ravens are entering the 2026 NFL season with Jesse Minter as the new head coach, following the departure of John Harbaugh after 18 seasons. Harbaugh led the team to 12 postseason appearances, including a Super Bowl victory, but recent locker room issues and a disappointing season prompted a change. Minter, who has a strong defensive background, faces challenges with the team’s key players, including quarterback Lamar Jackson, who has a history of injuries. Analysts predict a ceiling of 13 wins and a floor of 8 wins for the Ravens this season, depending on team performance and coaching effectiveness.
