As one of the newer teams (relatively speaking) in the NFL, the Ravens' list of Hall of Famers doesn't quite have the same depth as others. While other teams have two dozen or so former players in Canton, the Ravens currently only have seven.
Still, the seven names on that list go a long way in telling the history of the team. Names like Ray Lewis, Ed Reed, and Jonathan Ogden really emphasize just how many great players have spent some time in purple and black. And, of course, there are more on the way.
But for now, here's the full list of former Ravens now enshrined in Canton.
Which members of the Ravens are in the Pro Football Hall of Fame?
NAME | POSITION/TITLE | YEAR INDUCTED |
|---|---|---|
Devin Hester | PR/KR | 2024 |
Ray Lewis | LB | 2018 |
Jonathan Ogden | OL/T | 2013 |
Ed Reed | S/DB | 2019 |
Deion Sanders | CB/DB | 2011 |
Shannon Sharpe | TE | 2011 |
Rod Woodson | DB | 2009 |
As for current and/or recently-former Ravens players who could be next, here are a few names to keep an eye on over the next couple years.
Marshall Yanda
In 13 years – all with the Ravens – Yanda started 166 of the 177 games he appeared in. Only twice, in 2008 and 2017, did he appear in less than 13 games. During that time, Yanda made eight Pro Bowls and earned seven All-Pro nods (five Second Team, two First Team.)
According to Pro Football Focus, he only allowed 16 sacks his entire career, and never more than three in a season. Football Reference has him on the outside looking in, but it wouldn't be surprising to see him get in after a few years on the ballot.
Terrell Suggs
In 17 years as a pro, Suggs went to the Pro Bowl seven times – and all of those appearances were as a Baltimore Raven. He won Defensive Rookie of the Year in 2007, Defensive Player of the Year in 2011, and has two Super Bowl rings. According to the Ravens' website, Suggs ranks 8th all-time in sacks, and all seven people above him are already in the Hall; there are also people behind him on that list already enshrined.
He'll get in eventually.
Lamar Jackson
He'll almost certainly be the first Ravens' QB to earn a gold jacket.
In only six years, Jackson already has two MVP awards, almost 16,000 passing yards, two 1,000-yard rushing seasons, and over 150 combined touchdowns. He's arguably the best quarterback in football, not named Patrick Mahomes, and won't turn 28 until January of 2025.
For the numbers people out there, he's already well over halfway (70) toward Football Reference's average QB Hall of Fame monitor (103). He may *already* have a convincing case, but if he's able to stay healthy for the next 6-8 years, he's a first-ballot guy.
