Ravens Hire Israel Woolfork as Quarterbacks Coach for Lamar Jackson
The move follows the departure of Lamar Jackson’s longtime position coach Tee Martin.
Overview
- Woolfork arrives from the Cardinals to join Jesse Minter’s new staff as Baltimore reshapes its offensive coaching group.
- Martin was not retained after three seasons working closely with Jackson, ending a notable run of continuity in the quarterbacks room.
- Over the past three years in Arizona, Woolfork worked with Kyler Murray and, late last season, Jacoby Brissett during Murray’s absence.
- Murray posted 3,851 passing yards in 2024, and Murray and Brissett combined for 4,328 yards, 29 touchdowns and 11 interceptions last season.
- Reports say Woolfork interviewed for Tampa Bay’s offensive coordinator role and was previously blocked from other openings before being cleared to pursue Baltimore.
