Jesse Minter has been hired as the new head coach of the Baltimore Ravens, signing a five-year contract. This move comes after the departure of John Harbaugh and signifies the Ravens' desire for stability in their coaching position.
Minter previously coached for the Ravens from 2017 to 2020, holding roles such as defensive assistant and defensive backs coach. He then went on to significantly improve the Los Angeles Chargers' defense, turning it into one of the top units in the league during his time as their defensive coordinator.
This hire marks Minter's first head coaching opportunity, and Ravens fans have expressed excitement about his potential to revitalize the team's defense. The five-year deal aligns with the current trend in coaching contracts, indicating the Ravens' hope for a long-term tenure similar to Harbaugh's.
