Dayton Wade: Breaking News

Returning to Baltimore

The Ravens are expected to re-sign Wade (ribs), Matt Zenitz of CBSSports reports. Wade is slated to return to Baltimore, where he's spent the past two seasons. He spent the entirety of the 2025 season on injured reserve with a ribs injury and will look to make his regular-season debut during the upcoming campaign.

Officially placed on IR

The Ravens placed Wade (ribs) on injured reserve Tuesday, Jamison Hensley of ESPN.com reports. Wade underwent surgery to repair a rib injury that he suffered during the Ravens' preseason finale against the Commanders on Saturday. The 24-year-old wideout will focus on rehab and recovery and aim to be fully healthy for OTAs and minicamp in the spring.

Undergoing rib surgery

Head coach John Harbaugh said Monday that Wade will be "out for a while" due to a rib injury that he suffered during Saturday's preseason game against the Commanders, Clifton Brown of the Ravens' official site reports. Wade suffered the injury on the first play of the second quarter, when he took a hit from Antonio Hamilton while hauling in a 15-yard pass. Wade spent the entire 2024 season on the Ravens' practice squad, but his injury makes it likely that he'll be part of the team's roster cuts Tuesday.
