Ravens Name Zach Orr Defensive Coordinator

Former Ravens All-Pro LB Has Spent Six Seasons as an Assistant Coach on Baltimore’s Defensive Staff

The Baltimore Ravens named Zach Orr their defensive coordinator, head coach John Harbaugh announced Thursday.

(Orr will be made available to media at an introductory press conference next week.)

Orr, 31, enters his eighth year as an NFL coach, most recently serving as the Ravens’ inside linebackers coach for the past two seasons (2022-23). In 2021, he spent one year as Jacksonville’s outside linebackers coach.

Following his time playing linebacker for the Ravens (2014-16), Orr transitioned to coaching in 2017 after his retirement from the NFL due to a congenital neck/spine condition.
