Ravens Center Pinter's Season Ends with Torn Patellar Tendon

Baltimore Ravens center Danny Pinter suffered a torn patellar tendon during a joint practice with the Minnesota Vikings on August 19, 2026, effectively ending his season. Pinter, who had been competing for the starting role after Pro Bowl center Tyler Linderbaum departed for the Las Vegas Raiders, was carted off the field and diagnosed with a severe knee injury. This loss forces Baltimore to rely on veteran Ethan Pocic, who is recovering from an Achilles injury, or backup Jovaughn Gwyn to start at center. The injury represents a significant setback for the Ravens' offensive line, which is already undergoing major changes this offseason.

Raiders Day 5 Pads Spark Physical Clash as Crosby, Stokes Stand Out

Day 5 of Raiders training camp in pads heightened the trench battles: Maxx Crosby, healthy and aggressive, dominated rushes alongside Kwity Paye; interior line stability from Tyler Linderbaum with help from Spencer Burford and Jackson Powers‑Johnson opened running lanes for Ashton Jeanty and Mike Washington Jr. on the ground and in the passing game. Cornerback Eric Stokes showcased CB1-worthy shutdown coverage and leadership, while Fernando Mendoza endured early growing pains before finishing stronger as he adjusts to NFL speed. Head coach Klint Kubiak praised the professional, competitive group and the day's physical tempo.

Raiders Aim for Mendoza Era With Klint Kubiak and an Upgraded OL

After a brutal season, the Las Vegas Raiders reboot under new offensive-minded head coach Klint Kubiak, drafting Fernando Mendoza first overall and adding Kirk Cousins as a veteran bridge while upgrading the offensive line led by Tyler Linderbaum and Kolton Miller. Mendoza isn’t being rushed but could start Day 1 if ready, with Cousins ready to guide him; the backfield features Ashton Jeanty, the receiving corps includes Jalen Nailor and Tre Tucker, and tight ends Brock Bowers and Michael Mayer are poised to boost the passing game. The goal is to maximize Mendoza’s development and transform a unit that struggled with scoring and pass protection.

Raiders’ free-agent shakeup boosts run game, linebacking core

Las Vegas kicked off free agency by signing center Tyler Linderbaum and adding Georgia linebackers Nakobe Dean and Quay Walker, boosting the run game and linebacking corps. The team also reunited youth with several younger contributors, including DJ Glaze and Charles Grant, and kept Aidan O’Connell in the quarterback room. However, the Crosby trade that could have netted two first-round picks fell through, leaving questions at No. 1 receiver, nose tackle, and overall secondary depth as Spytek’s plan unfolds.

Ravens' Market-Setting Offer for Linderbaum Outpaced by Raiders' $81M Payday

The Ravens reportedly offered Tyler Linderbaum a four-year, $88 million contract (about $22 million per year, fully guaranteed) to stay in Baltimore, but the Raiders countered with a three-year, $81 million deal (roughly $27 million per year), leading to Linderbaum’s departure. Baltimore’s decision to not match reflects a broader Day 1 roster turnover that saw seven free agents leave, while other moves—including a John Simpson reunion and the Maxx Crosby trade—shaped the Ravens’ ongoing roster-building.

The team is reportedly pursuing a marquee addition like Maxx Crosby while juggling coaching changes, though they’ve re-signed Likely and Jordan Stout and still tout core pieces in Flowers, Bateman, Derrick Henry, and Mark Andrews.
