Giants Sign Fullback Patrick Ricard

The New York Giants have signed free agent fullback Patrick Ricard, according to Mike Garafolo of NFL Network. Ricard is the latest ex-Ravens player to follow head coach John Harbaugh from Baltimore to New York. The 31-year-old University of Maine product spent his first nine NFL seasons with the Ravens, and he was named a Pro Bowler in six of the last seven years. Most of his contributions came as a blocker for Lamar Jackson and Derrick Henry in 2025, but he did hold the football from time to time with two touches and 11 total scrimmage yards. He also has a little bit of experience on the defensive line, but he hasn't registered a tackle since 2022, so it's safe to say that most of his value comes in blocking assignments on offense. We already know he fits Harbaugh's scheme nicely, and now, we'll get to see what he can do in an up-and-coming offense anchored by young quarterback Jaxson Dart and physical running back Cam Skattebo (ankle).

Patrick Ricard Dealing With Soft-Tissue Injury

Baltimore Ravens head coach John Harbaugh said that fullback Patrick Ricard (soft tissue) is dealing with a "soft tissue thing" but should be able to return to practice before Week 1. Ricard has played in all 17 games for Baltimore in each of the last three regular seasons. While he's not a fantasy-relevant player himself, Ricard is a five-time Pro Bowler who plays an important role as a blocker in Baltimore's jumbo packages. If Ricard were to miss any time, it could negatively impact the rushing efficiency for Ravens running back Derrick Henry and quarterback Lamar Jackson.

Patrick Ricard Scores First Touchdown Of The Season

Baltimore Ravens fullback Patrick Ricard found the end zone for the first time this season in the 41-10 win over the Denver Broncos. Ricard scored on his lone target of the day which he caught for three yards. The four-time pro bowler is good for one of these receiving touchdowns per year when he slips out into a flat and finds himself wide open. Ricard and the Ravens will take on the Cincinnati Bengals in another AFC North matchup in Week 10.
