The wait is over, Ravens Flock! On Tuesday, the team officially dropped the 2025 training camp schedule, and the highlight is the triumphant return of the full-stadium practice at M&T Bank Stadium. While fans scramble to mark their calendars for the 12 open practices, quarterback Lamar Jackson set a fiery tone for the season, declaring the team is focused on one thing and one thing only: unfinished business.
We’re focused on one goal—finishing what we started.
Mark your calendars for July 23, when the Ravens kick off training camp at the Under Armour Performance Center. The team announced 12 free practices open to the public, with passes available for reservation starting July 9. The biggest news for fans is the return of the stadium practice at M&T Bank Stadium on August 3, an event that was sorely missed last year due to renovations. The schedule is packed with fan-friendly activities, including joint practices with the Indianapolis Colts on August 5 and dedicated autograph sessions for kids, ensuring a memorable experience for everyone.
While the schedule provides the 'when' and 'where,' Lamar Jackson provided the 'why.' The star quarterback has been vocal about the team's mindset, emphasizing leadership and accountability. His powerful statement that the team is focused on 'finishing what we started' resonates with the sting of last season's ending and sets a clear, championship-or-bust expectation. His dedication is already on display, as he's been seen putting in extra work with receiver Zay Flowers, building the chemistry that could ignite the Ravens' offense in 2025.
The offense isn't the only unit generating buzz. Analysts are coining a new nickname for the Ravens' secondary: the 'three-headed cornerback monster.' The formidable trio of Marlon Humphrey, newly acquired Jaire Alexander, and rising star Nate Wiggins is expected to be a nightmare for opposing quarterbacks. The defensive confidence is palpable, with veteran leader Kyle Van Noy already expressing his eagerness for the prime-time matchup against Aaron Rodgers and the rival Steelers. This isn't just a good defense on paper; it's a unit playing with swagger.
Training camp will be the proving ground for several key position battles. All eyes will be on the kicking competition to replace the legendary Justin Tucker. Coach John Harbaugh confirmed the battle is 'very real,' and the performance of the rookie kickers will be under intense scrutiny throughout camp. Another critical spot to watch is left guard, where a tough competition is expected to unfold. These battles will not only shape the final 53-man roster but could also have a significant impact on the team's performance in critical moments.
With the schedule now in hand, the storylines are set. From Lamar Jackson's determined leadership to a defense eager to prove its dominance and a kicking competition that could define close games, the stakes are high. The countdown to July 23 is officially on. Get ready, Ravens Flock—football is almost back, and this training camp promises to be one for the books.
