Reports: Ravens hire Declan Doyle as OC

The Baltimore Ravens are hiring Declan Doyle as their offensive coordinator, several media outlets reported Friday.

The Chicago Bears, who ‍tapped Doyle to lead their offense a year ago, allowed him to leave for the new opportunity because he will be the play-caller in Baltimore, per ESPN. Bears head coach Ben ‌Johnson calls plays himself.

Doyle joins the ‌staff of Jesse Minter, the defensive-minded head coach Baltimore hired Jan. 22 to replace John Harbaugh.

At 29 years old, Doyle is the same age ​as Lamar Jackson, the Ravens’ two-time MVP quarterback. He takes command of a prolific ‍rushing offense that slipped ​to 27th in passing yards and ​was 11th in points scored in 2025 under ‍veteran coordinator Todd Monken, the new head coach of the Cleveland Browns.

The Ravens went 8-9 and finished one win shy of the postseason. Jackson missed four games due ‍to hamstring and back injuries.

Doyle has spent seven years on NFL sidelines with the Bears, Denver Broncos (tight ‍ends coach, ‍2023-24) and New Orleans Saints (offensive ​assistant, 2019-22).

He was a student assistant ​for ⁠three seasons at Iowa and played ‌a season of college baseball at Iowa Western Community College.

Doyle also interviewed to be the Philadelphia Eagles’ offensive coordinator. That job went to Sean Mannion, the Green Bay Packers’ outgoing quarterbacks coach.
