Eric DeCosta loves the tone being set by Ravens veterans
Eric DeCosta recently praised the mentality and leadership Baltimore’s veteran players are bringing into the 2026 season.
The Baltimore Ravens have undergone major changes this offseason. The good news is, according to general manager Eric DeCosta, one thing hasn't disappeared. The locker room's leadership culture is as healthy as it's ever been, and it's bought in.
The general manager sounds very encouraged. During a recent appearance on 105. 7 The Fan, DeCosta praised the approach Baltimore's veteran players have taken throughout the offseason, particularly as the organization transitions into a new era under head coach Jesse Minter .
That matters more than people realize. Coaching changes often create uncertainty inside NFL buildings. New systems, new expectations, and new voices can sometimes fracture locker rooms before meaningful football even begins.
Instead, DeCosta seems to believe Baltimore's veteran core has embraced the challenge head-on. The energy and attendance are through the roof for offseason work, Baltimore Ravens GM Eric DeCosta told Bruce & @Obafemi30 . Players are embracing the new offensive approach and terminology, and EDC says Lamar Jackson is poised for a massive year.
