Ravens Agree to Terms With Durham Smythe

Wednesday, March 11, 12:32 PM

The Baltimore Ravens agreed to terms on an undisclosed deal with free-agent tight end Durham Smythe on Wednesday, sources told Jeff Zrebiec of The Athletic. Smythe will likely be the blocking replacement at the position for Charlie Kolar, who left in free agency this week to join the Los Angeles Chargers. The 30-year-old veteran will reunite with new Ravens offensive coordinator Declan Doyle after being coached by him with the Chicago Bears in 2025. The former fourth-round pick by the Miami Dolphins in 2018 out of Notre Dame won't be anywhere near the fantasy radar in any format going into next season. Smythe had a career-low four catches on six targets for 25 yards in 17 regular-season games with the Bears last year, and he has a measly 136 receptions for 1,253 yards and three touchdowns in his eight-year NFL career.

Matt Hibner News

Is Matthew Hibner the Tight End of the Future in Baltimore?

Saturday, May 2, 11:08 AM

The Baltimore Ravens made an aggressive move in the fourth round of the 2026 Draft, trading up to acquire SMU tight end Matthew Hibner. Across 13 games as a fifth-year senior in 2025, Hibner hauled in 31 receptions for 436 yards and four touchdowns. The Ravens have veteran tight end Mark Andrews firmly atop their depth chart, and they also signed tight end Durham Smythe in free agency. However, Baltimore lost key depth at the position over the offseason, with Isaiah Likely and Charlie Kolar both departing the team in free agency. Along with Ravens' fifth-round selection Josh Cuevas, Hibner should have a chance to play a prominent role alongside Andrews as a rookie. Andrews is also entering his age-31 season in 2026, so Hibner could emerge as Baltimore's tight end of the future with a solid rookie campaign. In dynasty leagues, Hibner is a name for managers to monitor.
