2025 Baltimore Ravens season

30th season in franchise history, final one under head coach John Harbaugh From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The 2025 season was the Baltimore Ravens' 30th in the National Football League (NFL) and their 18th and final under head coach John Harbaugh. The Ravens failed to improve upon their 2024 record of 12–5 with their Week 6 loss to the Los Angeles Rams, starting the season 1–5 for the first time since 2015, and failed to match that record following their Thanksgiving Day loss to the Cincinnati Bengals. The Thanksgiving game was Baltimore's first since 2013. They were originally scheduled to play on Thanksgiving in 2020, but the game was postponed due to a COVID-19 outbreak. They missed the playoffs for the first time since 2021, and also suffered their first losing season since then after a Week 18 loss to their archrival Pittsburgh Steelers; a win would have clinched the division for the Ravens. This season would be the end of John Harbaugh's coaching tenure in Baltimore, as he was dismissed two days after the season ended.[1] Harbaugh compiled a 180–113 regular season record and a 13–11 record in the playoffs, winning Super Bowl XLVII against his brother Jim Harbaugh in the 2012 season and was named Coach of the Year in 2019.

This is the first season since 2011 without kicker Justin Tucker, who was the last Raven on the roster to have played for the team's 2012 Super Bowl championship team, [2] as Tucker was released by the team amid allegations of inappropriate sexual conduct on May 5.[3]

The 2025 Ravens notably struggled at home, with a 3–6 home record. Conversely, Baltimore performed moderately well on the road, having finished with a 5–3 road record.

During the season, Mark Andrews broke Derrick Mason's record for most receiving yards as a Raven with 5,952; the previous record was 5,777.

The Baltimore Ravens drew an average home attendance of 70,294, the 13th-highest of all NFL teams.[4]

In a rematch of last season's AFC Divisional Playoffs, the Ravens squandered strong performances by running back Derrick Henry and receiver Zay Flowers, blowing a 40–25 lead in the fourth quarter as they lost to Josh Allen and the Bills, 41–40, on a 32-yard last-second field goal by Matt Prater. The Ravens were unable to overcome two three-and-outs and a Henry fumble on their last three drives, in addition to 250 passing yards and three touchdowns by Allen in the fourth quarter alone. With the loss, their first regular season loss in Buffalo since 2013, the Ravens started their season 0–1 for the second consecutive season. This was also the first time the Ravens started 0–1 in back-to-back seasons since 2015, as well as the first time an NFL team had lost after scoring 40 or more points and rushing for over 235 yards.[13] This was the first game to end in a 41–40 final score.

The Ravens faced their former quarterback Joe Flacco in Baltimore for the first time (the prior meeting was against the New York Jets on the road). After a sluggish first half, the Ravens dominated the second half and blew out the Browns 41–17. Baltimore's defense swarmed Flacco, who finished 25-of-45 for 199 yards with a touchdown, an interception, and a fumble, which was returned for a touchdown. Meanwhile, quarterback Lamar Jackson threw for 225 yards and four touchdowns.[14] With the win, the Ravens rebounded from the disappointing loss the previous week and improved to 1–1.

Baltimore entered the matchup against Kansas City without a total of six defensive starters. Baltimore scored the game's first set of points with a touchdown to Justice Hill, but the team could never control the game. Backup quarterback Cooper Rush entered the game in the fourth quarter with Lamar Jackson suffering a hamstring injury.

With a poor performance against the Chiefs, the Ravens dropped to 1–3, their first such start since 2015. They fell to 1–6 against the Chiefs since 2018.

With Lamar Jackson out with that hamstring injury, Baltimore was thoroughly dominated throughout the game, being outplayed in all phases. On the opening drive, the Ravens allowed C. J. Stroud and the Texans to score their first offensive touchdown against them, having failed to score one in each of the previous three meetings.[15] The Ravens lost 44–10, ending a six-game winning streak against Houston and suffering their first home loss to the Texans in franchise history. The 34-point margin tied the worst home loss in Ravens history, equaling a 41–7 defeat to the New England Patriots in 2013.[16]

With the loss, the Ravens fell to 1–4, marking their worst start to a season since the 2015 season.[15]

After giving up nearly 40 points per game in their previous 3 games, the Ravens defense held the Rams to just 17 points. However, neither back-up quarterbacks Cooper Rush nor Tyler Huntley could generate any momentum as the offense floundered, scoring only 3 points. With their fourth straight loss, their longest such streak since 2021, the Ravens fell to 1–5 for the first time since 2015.

Although the Ravens entered the game as more than a touchdown favorite, the Browns led for much of the game. After tying the game at 16–16 with two field goals in the fourth quarter, Mark Andrews ran for a 35-yard go-ahead touchdown on a trick play on 4th-and-1 with 2:31 remaining, giving the Ravens the lead. The Browns attempted to make a comeback drive, but turned the ball over on downs after failing to convert a 4th-and-5 from the Baltimore 25-yard line with 0:57 remaining, securing the victory for Baltimore. This marked the Ravens’ first sweep of the Browns since the 2020 season, improving Baltimore's record to 5–5 on the year and 39–15 all-time against Cleveland. The Ravens also spoiled Shedeur Sanders’ debut; he finished 4-of-16 with an interception and a 13.5 passer rating after coming into the game in the third quarter due to Dillon Gabriel suffering an injury. He was also sacked twice as the Browns went scoreless in the second half.[21]

Mark Andrews also became the Ravens’ career leader in receiving yards (5,806) during the game, surpassing wide receiver Derrick Mason’s previous franchise record of 5,777.[22]

The Ravens played a sloppy game and were absolutely dominated, committing four fumbles, including two by Lamar Jackson. Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow, making his return after suffering a turf toe injury in Week 2, threw for 261 yards and two touchdowns, contributing to a Ravens loss.[24]

This was the Ravens' first Thanksgiving loss, making the Houston Texans the only team in the NFL with at least two Thanksgiving wins without a loss. It was also Baltimore's first since Thanksgiving game since 2013. They were originally scheduled to play on Thanksgiving in 2020, but the 2020 game was postponed due to a COVID-19 outbreak.

The game was also the most-watched Thanksgiving night game in NFL history with an average of 28.4 million viewers across NBC, Peacock, and Telemundo.

A controversial moment occurred when Isaiah Likely caught a pass from Lamar Jackson with both hands in the end zone, with both feet down. As he was about to take another step with his right foot, Steelers’ cornerback Joey Porter Jr. knocked the ball free. The play was initially ruled a touchdown but was later overturned to an incomplete pass. The Ravens eventually turned the ball over on downs.[25]

The next day, Ravens guard Ben Cleveland was suspended for 3 games for violating the NFL's substance abuse policy.[26]

Also with the win, the Ravens improved to 7–7, and keeping their playoff hopes alive while ending those of the Bengals.[27]

At the end of the half, Lamar Jackson was taken out of the game with a back injury and was later ruled out.[28] In the fourth quarter, Derrick Henry rushed for a touchdown to give the Ravens a 24–13 lead. However, that was the last time Henry touched the ball. Patriots quarterback Drake Maye then rallied the Patriots, throwing two touchdown passes to give New England a 28–24 lead. On Baltimore's next drive, Zay Flowers fumbled, and the Patriots ran out the clock to secure the win. With the loss, Baltimore fell to 7–8 (2–2 against the AFC East) and finished 3–6 at home. This also marked the 17th time the Ravens blew a multi possession lead since 2008.

Despite a late rally, Tyler Loop missed the game-winning field goal when time expired, which denied the Ravens a chance to win a third straight AFC North title. As a result, the Ravens were swept by the Steelers for the fourth time in six years, as well as them clinching their first losing season since 2021. Baltimore ended their season at 8–9 (3–3 against the AFC North) and 5–3 on the road. Also with the loss, the Ravens were eliminated from playoff contention. This would prove to be John Harbaugh's final game as head coach for Baltimore, as he was dismissed two days later.[30]
