Fresh NFL Rumors Update Tyler Linderbaum Landing Spots Amid Ravens Contract Buzz

Center Tyler Linderbaum is expected to be one of the hottest commodities on the free agency market this week, though the Baltimore Ravens would love to have him back.

According to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport, the Ravens have "tried over the last several weeks to bring back Linderbaum. ... He is looking at $20 million-plus [per season]. From my understanding, the Ravens have remained in contact with him, still have interest in having him back, but there are some other teams, no doubt, that are lurking. I would say the Las Vegas Raiders would make a lot of sense, the Washington Commanders who cut Tyler Biadasz... are expected to have interest as well. The Tennessee Titans need a center, Linderbaum is going to do exceptionally well in this free-agent market."

According to Sports Illustrated's Albert Breer, Linderbaum's camp is aiming for a contract worth $25 million per year. Breer noted that'd represent a 38% increase over the deal Creed Humphrey signed with the Kansas City Chiefs in 2024 as the league's highest-paid center ($18 million per season).

Linderbaum, 25, is already a three-time Pro Bowler in his four NFL seasons and has been durable as well, missing just two games. And the fact that Biadasz—who is three years older and only has one Pro Bowl to his name—signed a three-year, $30 million deal with the Los Angeles Chargers after being cut by Washington is a pretty good indication that Linderbaum is about to receive a major pay day.

Whether that's in Baltimore or elsewhere remains to be seen.
