Baltimore Ravens training camp opens in three weeks, and for the first time in nearly two decades, a different voice will be calling the shots in Owings Mills. Jesse Minter's debut as head coach, Lamar Jackson's adaptation to a new offensive coordinator, and a rebuilt defense built around one of the offseason's biggest free agent signings make 2026 one of the more compelling training camps in recent franchise history. Here is everything you need to know before you go.
The Basics
When: First full-team practice is Wednesday, July 29. The final open public practice is Monday, August 17. There are 12 practices open to the public in total.
Where: The Under Armour Performance Center in Owings Mills, Maryland — the same facility where the Ravens have held camp for years.
Cost: All 12 public practices are free for fans.
Special event: The Ravens will also hold a practice on Saturday, August 1 in College Park, Maryland — the first-ever NFL practice held in Prince George's County, and the team's inaugural fan engagement event there.
Joint practices: The Ravens will travel to Minnesota for two joint practices with the Vikings at TCO Performance Center on August 19 and 20, ahead of their preseason game at U.S. Bank Stadium on August 22.

Tickets
Tickets are free but required for entry. The Ravens introduced a new ticketing system for 2026 that allows fans to claim up to four tickets for a specific practice.
When tickets become available: Thursday, July 9 at 9 a.m. for PSL holders, and 11 a.m. for the general public.
Where to get them: BaltimoreRavens.com/TrainingCamp or the Ravens Mobile App. The system operates on a first-come, first-served basis. Once all available tickets are claimed, fans can join a waitlist — though a spot on the waitlist does not guarantee entry.
After claiming your tickets, you will receive a confirmation email. Detailed practice time and logistics information will be emailed no later than 48 hours before your selected date.
Tickets are non-transferable except through the Ravens Mobile App or SeatGeek app. They cannot be resold.
Parking and Transportation
This is the biggest change from previous years. All fans are required to park at the Metro Centre at Owings Mills — you cannot drive directly to the Under Armour Performance Center.
From Metro Centre, the Ravens will run motorcoach shuttles to and from the practice facility. Parking opens 1.5 hours before practice. The change was made intentionally: according to Ravens Senior Vice President of Marketing Brad Downs, the new system allows the team to significantly increase the number of fans hosted at each practice while minimizing congestion on site.
ADA parking: Fans with ADA needs will receive an email after claiming tickets with instructions for requesting an on-site ADA parking pass. Buses are ADA compliant. A very limited number of ADA spots are available on site for guests unable to ride the shuttle; a valid ADA hangtag matching the driver and vehicle is required.
What Happens After Practice
Each practice runs approximately two to two and a half hours. Once it wraps up, there is plenty to do.
Autographs: Children ages 6 to 12 are eligible for post-practice autograph sessions. Wristbands are distributed at check-in on a limited, first-come basis. Players will have Sharpies — you do not need to bring one.
Fan Zone: The Ravens will operate a Fan Zone presented by SeatGeek featuring interactive games, entertainment, concessions, photo opportunities, sponsor activations, and the Ravens Flock Shop.
What to Bring (and What Not To)
Prohibited items include backpacks, duffle bags, and any bag larger than 12 inches by 12 inches.
Weather and Cancellations
If inclement weather forces a practice to move or cancel, the Ravens will update the Training Camp page on the mobile app and via the info line at 410-261-RAVE (7283), press 3. Practices moved due to weather will not be rescheduled, and tickets cannot be transferred to another date.
Five Storylines to Watch
1. Jesse Minter's First Act
For the first time since 2007, John Harbaugh will not be walking the Ravens' sideline. After an 8-9 season that ended without a playoff appearance — just Baltimore's second losing record since 2015 — the Ravens parted ways with Harbaugh following 18 seasons and handed the reins to Jesse Minter.
Minter, a product of the Harbaugh coaching tree, arrives with significant defensive credentials but unproven head coaching experience. The early question is not whether he can scheme — the assumption is he can — but whether he can manage the broader demands of the job. Training camp will be the first sustained look at how Minter runs a program, commands a roster, and navigates the thousand daily decisions a head coach makes before the first real game.
2. Lamar Jackson in Declan Doyle's Offense
Jackson is entering his ninth NFL season and his first with a new offensive coordinator. Declan Doyle, 30 years old, spent 2025 as an offensive coordinator under Ben Johnson in Chicago before Baltimore brought him in. He is expected to place Jackson under center more than he has been accustomed to, with a new emphasis on scheme diversity and pre-snap command.
The biggest thing to watch at camp is how much ownership Jackson shows at the line of scrimmage. Doyle can introduce new formations and concepts, but the offense will ultimately run through Jackson's ability to read defenses and execute. Jackson has embraced the new system publicly. Whether that translates to early rhythm and comfort in camp will set the tone for the season.
The Ravens return Derrick Henry, Mark Andrews, Zay Flowers, and Rashod Bateman, so the pieces are there. The integration of rookie receivers Ja'Kobi Lane and Elijah Sarratt — and the development of Devontez Walker, who impressed in the spring — will also be worth watching as Doyle builds his offense around an established core.
3. Trey Hendrickson and the Rebuilt Pass Rush
The Ravens' defense ranked 24th in the NFL in 2025, and the collapse of the pass rush — Baltimore managed just 30 sacks on the season — was central to the problem. Nnamdi Madubuike's serious neck injury exposed how thin the defensive front truly was.
The offseason answer was Trey Hendrickson, signed to a four-year, $112 million deal after a Pro Bowl career in Cincinnati. Hendrickson underwent core muscle surgery in December but reported himself ready during his introductory press conference in March and was impressive during OTAs. Minter, who will directly oversee this defense, called Hendrickson's spring "very, very, very pleasing."
The question at camp is who starts opposite him. Tavius Robinson, who showed significant growth in 2025, enters as the favorite. Second-round rookie Zion Young, with elite length and burst, could push for the starting job if he adapts quickly. The depth of this group — which also includes Mike Green and Adisa Isaac — will determine whether Baltimore's pass rush goes from a weakness to a genuine strength.
Madubuike, still recovering from his neck injury, is expected to miss the start of camp. His timeline will be a subplot all summer.
4. The Center Competition
The departure of Tyler Linderbaum to the Las Vegas Raiders leaves a significant hole in the middle of Baltimore's offensive line. Linderbaum was a foundational piece of the run game, and replacing him while keeping Lamar Jackson clean and Derrick Henry productive is one of the more important personnel puzzles of the offseason.
Three players will compete: veteran Danny Pinter, Jovaughn Gwyn, and Corey Bullock. Minter has pushed back on the notion that Pinter is a clear frontrunner, calling it a "pretty balanced competition" — though he noted that offensive line battles do not truly sort themselves out until the pads come on. That happens in training camp. This one is worth watching from Day 1.
5. The Secondary's Starpower
While the rest of the roster has questions, the Ravens' secondary may be the deepest and most talented unit in the AFC. Kyle Hamilton, entering his age-25 season, led all NFL safeties in pass-rush attempts last year and finished in the top 10 at his position across multiple statistical categories. Baltimore also returns 2025 first-round pick Malaki Starks, who is widely projected for a second-year breakout.
At cornerback, Nate Wiggins and Chidobe Awuzie are locked in at the outside spots, with the legendary Marlon Humphrey in the slot. Rookie Chandler Rivers enters camp as a developmental piece with sticky man-coverage skills. The unit has four first-round draft picks in its secondary — a staggering concentration of talent that Minter will look to maximize with his scheme.
