Overview
- Campbell, who turns 40 on Sept. 1, agreed Thursday to a one-year return to Baltimore that multiple outlets pegged around $5.5 million.
- Baltimore sought immediate help inside after the draft left few experienced options and with Pro Bowler Nnamdi Madubuike rehabbing a neck injury.
- Campbell started all 17 games for Arizona in 2025 and posted 6.5 sacks, 43 tackles and 16 quarterback hits while drawing strong run-defense grades.
- The move reunites him with a familiar staff, including new head coach Jesse Minter and defensive coordinator Anthony Weaver, and it was timed after the compensatory-pick deadline, preserving the Ravens’ 2027 formula.
- The 6-foot-8 lineman has 278 career games and 117 sacks, putting him near the all-time appearance mark for defensive linemen and offering needed leadership to a front that struggled to rush the passer last season.
