New Headline: Sebastian Vettel Takes Red Bull to Victory with Lightning-Quick Lap Time

Patrick Ricard | Diamond Images/Getty Images John Harbaugh and the New York Giants are establishing a new identity built around heavier personnel packages, and they’ve signed a player who fits that vision perfectly: fullback Patrick Ricard. The 31-year-old served as a dynamic lead blocker for Derrick Henry over the past two seasons with the Baltimore Ravens, and he spent his entire career in Baltimore under John Harbaugh. Ricard entered the league as an undrafted rookie free agent in 2017 out of the University of Maine.

He played 149 offensive snaps as a rookie and 96 in his sophomore season (2018). Over the course of his career, he has logged 3,640 offensive snaps and consistently earned strong run-blocking grades from Pro Football Focus. Ricard only played 274 snaps in 2025, due to a calf injury that he sustained in training camp.

Ricard reappeared with the injury in late October and returned in Week 8 against the Chicago Bears. Despite primarily serving as a blocker, Ricard has contributed occasionally as a ball carrier and receiver. He has committed 20 penalties in his career and caught 53 of 69 targets for 360 yards and seven receiving touchdowns.

On the ground, he has 11 career carries for 22 yards. Patrick Ricard will be fun for the Giants pic. twitter.
