2025 Fantasy Outlook
Madubuike is coming off his second consecutive Pro Bowl nod and is still in his peak at age 27. His IDP production sank a bit in 2024 relative to his breakout 2023, but he still finished with 6.5 sacks from his spot as the left defensive end. If some of the developmental players around Madubuike take steps forward this year, it will make Madubuike's job easier and he will face fewer double teams. Read Past Outlooks
Signed a four-year, $98 million contract with the Ravens in March of 2024.
Out for the year
Head coach Jon Harbaugh told reporters Monday that Madubuike (neck) won't return this season, Jamison Hensley of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
The 27-year-old defensive lineman was placed on injured reserve prior to the Ravens' Week 4 loss to the Chiefs due to a neck injury, and it now appears he'll be sidelined for the remainder of the season. The loss of Madubuike is huge for a Ravens defense that's struggled this season, as he posted 99 total tackles, including 19.5 sacks, over his last two full seasons. Aeneas Peebles is expected to serve as one of Baltimore's top defensive ends while Madubuike remains sidelined.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2024
2023
2021
Madubuike's career had been building towards his breakout in 2023, but few could have expected the type of season he had. From the defensive end spot in Baltimore's 3-4 defense, Madubuike racked up 13.0 sacks and two forced fumbles over 726 snaps while adding 38 tackles. It may be difficult to replicate that type of production again - Madubuike had 8.5 career sacks going into 2023 - but he's also entering his prime at age 26. His role and functions should largely remain the same under new defensive coordinator, Zach Orr.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Likely to get franchise tag
The Ravens are likely to place the franchise tag on Madubuike this offseason, Jamison Hensley of ESPN reports.
ANALYSIS
Madubuike emerged as one of the league's better interior pass rushers this season, racking up 13 total sacks. The team has tried to retain him on a long-term deal with no success, so they may instead turn to a shorter -- but costlier -- option. If tagged, Madubuike would be in line to earn roughly $19 million while almost certainly hitting free agency next offseason.
