Matthew Hibner turned a short out-route pass into a 13-yard gain to help push the Ravens deeper into the red zone, setting up a score in Week 1. He was not targeted again in the game.PositiveProjectionSep 8, 2026
The source predicts Hibner leads the Ravens tight end room in receiving yards in 2026. Hibner projects as a more likely instant producer than Josh Cuevas given his athletic profile and yards-after-catch ability. The Ravens need at least one of their rookie tight ends to develop into a complementary receiving role to fill absences left by Isaiah Likely and Charlie Kolar. Hibner has upside to receive a handful of catches per game and possesses downfield yards-after-catch skills to turn receptions into solid yardage, particularly as he develops in the offensive attack.PositiveRoleAug 20, 2026
Round 4 TE (No. 133 overall) put together one of the most impressive performances of Baltimore's rookie class in preseason debut; on 32 snaps, Hibner finished as the Ravens' highest graded offensive player by PFF with a 92.6 overall grade (74.0 pass blocking, 93.6 receiving). In the passing game, he matched up one-on-one with a linebacker, created separation on an out-and-up route, and caught a screen while showing ability to operate in space and create additional yardage after the catch. He also logged 17 run blocking snaps with several quality reps sealing defenders to create running lanes. The source emphasizes his versatility: receiving ability, movement skills, and functional blocking translated into 5 catches for 61 yards.PositiveRoleAug 16, 2026
