Isaiah Likely among Ravens who could earn first Pro Bowl nod in 2025


Isaiah Likely and Odafe Oweh are among the Baltimore Ravens who could earn first Pro Bowl nod in 2025

Training camp is in the air, and John Harbaugh’s team has very few holes on both sides of the football. Still, several key positions will see competition, and a breakout campaign from an under-the-radar player could help ignite a run to the Super Bowl in Santa Clara.

You can add ever-growing expectations for Zach Orr’s defense, which has added elite talent at all three levels throughout free agency, the NFL draft, and Jaire Alexander’s signing.

With training camp fast approaching, we’re looking at seven Ravens who could earn their first Pro Bowl nod in 2025.

OL Daniel Faalele

 Faalele won the starting right guard job out of training camp and played every single offensive snap in every game last year. According to Pro Football Focus (PFF), Faalele surrendered one sack and 32 pressures in 578 pass-blocking opportunities in the previous season. Faalele needs to improve as a run-blocker.

TE Isaiah Likely

Likely caught four of five targets for 73 yards and a touchdown in the Ravens’ 27-25 divisional-round loss to the Bills. An ascending player who could be the most dynamic weapon on offense, Likely recorded 126 receiving yards during the playoffs, and he had a career-best 42 catches for 477 yards and six touchdowns. Likely will play out the final year of his rookie contract in 2025, but a Pro Bowl could be in the cards.

WR Rashod Bateman

Rashod Bateman trusted the process, and the former Minnesota All-American has found his groove with the Ravens, signing a multi-year contract extension for the second consecutive off-season. After producing the best season of his career, Rashod Bateman has agreed to a 3-year, $36.75 million contract extension with the Baltimore Ravens. The move comes nearly a year after the Ravens signed Bateman to a three-year contract extension eight days before the deadline for exercising his 5th-year option. The 2024 season was his most impactful regular season since getting drafted by Baltimore, with career highs in receiving yards (756) and touchdowns (nine) on the second-highest catch total of his career (45) across 17 games. Bateman was signed through the 2026 season. Bateman was the only player in the NFL last season to average at least 16 yards per reception and catch nine or more touchdowns.

OL Roger Rosengarten

Rosengarten was the ninth tackle selected in last April’s NFL draft, and he earned a spot on the Pro Football Writers of America All-Rookie team. Rosengarten and No. 5-overall pick Joe Alt of the Los Angeles Chargers were the all-rookie offensive tackles. After alternating snaps in the first three weeks, Rosengarten took over as the Ravens’ starting right tackle in Week 4 and never looked back, starting 16 games (including the playoffs). Among offensive tackles who played at least 50% of the snaps, Rosengarten ranked No. 39 at his position, according to Pro Football Focus (PFF). He was credited with four sacks allowed in 488 pass-blocking snaps.

OLB Odafe Oweh

Oweh has yet to make the Pro Bowl, but that could change this season. Oweh, who added 20 pounds of muscle this offseason, is the Ravens’ player most likely to be a first-time Pro Bowler in 2025. Last year, the former first-round pick had the most productive year of his career, logging ten sacks while recording 23 quarterback hits, 12 quarterback knockdowns, and 28 pressures.

CB Nate Wiggins

Wiggins had a solid debut with 33 tackles, an interception returned for a touchdown, 13 pass breakups, and a forced fumble. 

DB Malaki Starks

A Swiss army knife who has already taken on a leadership role, Starks will be a Day 1 starter and will have plenty of opportunities to make his case for Defensive Rookie of the Year. Starks played three seasons for the Bulldogs, recording 197 total tackles, 17 pass deflections, and six interceptions in his collegiate career. In the 2024 season, he had 77 total tackles, four for loss, and one interception. He was an All-American in 2023.
