- Roger Rosengarten stepping into leadership role with Baltimore Ravens
Heading into the 2026 season, former Washington Huskies right tackle Roger Rosengarten has established himself as one of the NFL's brightest rising stars along the offensive line with the Baltimore Ravens and has big plans for his future.
Across his first two years in the league, Rosengarten has appeared in 36 games (including the playoffs) with 33 starts, and has been a key piece of one of the NFL's top rushing attacks, led by quarterback Lamar Jackson and running back Derrick Henry .

Now, Rosengarten is expected to step into a leadership role after All-Pro center Tyler Linderbaum , a challenge he's embracing before he's eligible for a contract extension at the conclusion of the season.
"They are big shoes to fill, but I think I need to be the example for the guys to look up to," Rosengarten told Ravens staff writer Clifton Brown.
One way that Rosengarten is attempting to be that example is as a run blocker, which was his biggest area of focus throughout the offseason.
"I definitely want to assert my dominance in the run game," Rosengarten said. "Throughout my high school and college career, I have definitely been in a more pass-heavy offense. I really want to assert my dominance there. I feel like I have done a great job working on that this offseason and through OTAs, and now going into training camp, it is time to put it all together and put it on film."

If he puts it all together this fall as the Ravens look to return to the playoffs, Rosengarten could wind up as one of the league's highest-paid tackles.
