Should I Start Tyler Linderbaum?

Wednesday, April 30, 1:30 PM

The Baltimore Ravens announced on Wednesday that they will not be picking up the fifth-year option on center Tyler Linderbaum. However, general manager Eric DeCosta said the organization is open to working out a new deal for the 25-year-old former 25th overall pick int he 2022 NFL draft out of Iowa. Unless the two sides work out a long-term contract extension, Linderbaum will be eligible for free agency following the 2025 season. He was a Pro Bowler in each of the last two seasons for the Ravens and has started all 49 games that he's appeared in over his three NFL seasons in Baltimore. Linderbaum was hampered by a back injury last year but managed to play in all 17 regular-season games. It sounds like the Ravens plan on keeping Linderbaum beyond this season.
