If center Tyler Linderbaum remains with the Ravens for the 2026 season, it will have to be on a different contract than his current one.
The Ravens announced on Wednesday that they will not exercise their fifth-year option on Linderbaum’s rookie deal. Safety Kyle Hamilton’s option is going to be picked up.
General Manager Eric DeCosta said in a statement that the team is interested in signing Linderbaum to a new contract.
“While we will not apply the fifth-year option to Tyler Linderbaum, it is our intention for him to remain a Baltimore Raven long term,” DeCosta said.
