K'Lavon Chaisson kept plugging away after a rocky start in the NFL, eventually breaking out with the New England Patriots in 2025, helping them win the AFC Championship.
Huntley, 28, got his career back on track in his third stint with the Ravens. Last season, he was 2-0 filling in for Jackson, leading Baltimore to wins over two playoff teams in the Chicago Bears and Green Bay Packers.
Although Weaver will hold the title of defensive coordinator, new Ravens head coach Jesse Minter indicated in his introductory news conference last week that he would call the defensive plays for Baltimore. Last month, along with Minter and then-Bills offensive coordinator Joe Brady, Weaver was among the finalists to interview for the Ravens' head coach opening. Weaver also interviewed for four other head coach vacancies this offseason: the Atlanta Falcons, Arizona Cardinals, Buffalo Bills and Pittsburgh Steelers.
About an hour after the Baltimore Ravens announced Jesse Minter as their new head coach on Thursday night, a high-ranking team official was told that Minter has been described as a "legitimate genius." "Honestly, that's what they said about Mike Macdonald," the high-ranking Ravens source said. "And it may just be true again." Like Macdonald, Minter got into the NFL by working his way up through the Ravens' defensive coaching ranks and spent time at the University of Michigan as its defensive coordinator.
