Adisa Isaac: Everything you need to know

Head coach John Harbaugh told reporters Monday that Isaac had a "setback" with his elbow injury and is not close to a return from injured reserve, Jeff Zrebiec of The Athletic reports. Isaac started the season on IR after undergoing surgery on a dislocated elbow that he suffered in mid-August during a preseason game. He was expected to miss the first half of the 2025 season, but it appears the second-year linebacker will need more time to rehab from his procedure. A timeline for his return hasn't been establish, but time is running out for Isaac to see the field this season.

Baltimore placed Isaac (elbow) on its injured reserve list Tuesday, Jamison Hensley of ESPN.com reports. Isaac was already expected to miss half of the 2025 season after dislocating his elbow during the Ravens' second preseason game at Dallas, but it's now certain he'll have to miss at least the first four games of the year. He was designated for return by Baltimore, which means he'll be allowed to play once healthy starting in Week 5 versus the Texans. Until he returns, rookie second-rounder Mike Green projects to see a higher share of snaps on the edge.

Isaac needs surgery on the dislocated elbow he suffered during Saturday's preseason game against Dallas and will be placed on injured reserve, Jeff Zrebiec of The Athletic reports. The 2024 third-round pick out of Penn State will likely miss at least half of his second NFL season, per Zrebiec. As a rookie, Isaac only appeared in four games and on 30 defensive snaps due to injuries and coach's decisions. Even if he's able to return in 2025, the outside linebacker faces stiff competition for snaps in the form of Odafe Oweh, Kyle Van Noy and 2025 second-rounder Mike Green.
