Kingsbury is a fascinating head coaching candidate to consider for the Ravens job.
Perhaps the most important question about his candidacy is would he be a good fit with Ravens QB Lamar Jackson ?
Jackson is still the most important players on the team, even though he has not been much of a factor in 2025. Baltimore's franchise quarterback battled through multiple injuries this season, which had him not looking like himself.

Kingsbury has experience designing offenses around mobile quarterbacks, especially at the NFL level. He most recently coaching Jayden Daniels with the Commanders. But before that, he was the head coach in Arizona during Kyler Murray 's prime years.
That does not automatically make Kingsbury the right man for the job. But it does give him a significant edge over other candidates.
If the Ravens do hire Kingsbury, it would be a huge commitment to Lamar. And a signal to the rest of the league that Baltimore's offensive scheme will be changing before the 2026 season.
It will be interesting to see if Kingsbury gains any traction with the Ravens as their search continues this week.
