Ravens' Matthew Hibner: Records one catch in Week 9 defeat
Hibner logged one reception for five yards on two targets in Thursday's loss to Baltimore.
Hibner ranked second among Baltimore tight ends with 30 offensive snaps, just behind Mark Andrews (32). The former didn't do much with the opportunity, but it was a very quiet game for the Ravens' passing game as a whole, as starting QB Joe Fagnano threw for just 60 yards. Baltimore will likely have the recently acquired Jacoby Brissett starting behind center for the team's next game (Monday, Oct. 16 versus the Chargers), but Hibner has just six catches across eight contests this season, so he's not a viable fantasy option regardless of who is throwing him the ball.

Ravens' Matthew Hibner: On track to play Sunday
Hibner (hand) was a full participant at practice Thursday.
Hibner managed a full practice Thursday for the first time since he hurt his hand back in Week 5 at Atlanta, suggesting he'll more than likely be available in Week 7 versus the Bengals. Before getting hurt, he was operating as Baltimore's secondary tight end, filling a complementary role relative to veteran starter Mark Andrews.

Ravens' Matthew Hibner: Limited participant Wednesday
Hibner (hand) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice.
Hibner had not practiced since sustaining a hand injury in the Ravens' Week 5 overtime win over the Falcons. The tight end's upgrade to limited practice in Week 7 prep is a significant improvement and could signal a return to the field as soon as Sunday's game against the Bengals.

Ravens' Matthew Hibner: Not playing vs. Cleveland
Hibner (hand) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Browns.
Hibner was held out of practice all week due to a hand injury that he sustained during the Ravens' Week 5 overtime win over the Falcons. Per Brian Wacker of The Baltimore Sun, Hibner is not considered to be a candidate for injured reserve, so the rookie tight end could be back in action as soon as Week 7 against the Bengals. In Hibner's absence, Josh Cuevas and Nick Vannett are both in line for more snaps on offense while operating behind TE1 Mark Andrews.

Ravens' Matthew Hibner: Misses another practice
Hibner (hand) did not practice Thursday.
Hibner injured his hand in Sunday's overtime win over Atlanta. While he managed to return to the contest, he has since missed the Ravens' last two practice sessions. Hibner will likely need to practice Friday if he hopes to avoid an injury designation ahead of Sunday's game against Cleveland. If he can't get on the field in Week 6, Josh Cuevas and Nick Vannett would presumably see more targets behind Mark Andrews.

Ravens' Matthew Hibner: Still dealing with hand issue
Hibner (hand) did not participate at practice Wednesday.
Hibner was able to play through the hand injury he suffered during Sunday's game at Atlanta and finish that contest, but it looks like it's still bothering him as the Ravens begin preparing for Week 6. He'll likely need to get back on the practice field Thursday or Friday to give himself a realistic chance to play Sunday at Cleveland.

Ravens' Matthew Hibner: Back in action Sunday
Hibner (hand) has returned to action Sunday night against the Falcons, Jeff Zrebiec of The Athletic reports.
Hibner sustained a hand injury in the first half, but he has now returned to the field after the break. The tight end will operate as the No. 2 option at his position behind Mark Andrews for the final stretch of the contest.

Ravens' Matthew Hibner: Dealing with hand injury
Hibner (hand) is questionable to return to Sunday night's contest against the Falcons.
Hibner suffered a hand injury in the first quarter, and his availability for the rest of the contest is now uncertain. In his absence, Mark Andrews will continue to handle the lion's share of the workload at tight end.

Ravens' Matthew Hibner: Two catches in Week 4 win
Hibner caught both of his targets for 34 yards in Sunday's 24-18 win over the Titans.
Both Hibner and Mark Andrews played 37 of 64 offensive snaps against Tennessee, though Andrews ran 24 routes to Hibner's 10, as the latter is more of the blocking complement to Andrews in the pass-catching role. The fourth-round rookie Hibner has secured all five of his targets for 70 yards and a touchdown through four games.

Ravens' Matthew Hibner: Catches sole target in win
Hibner caught his only target for 13 yards in the Ravens' 41-23 win over the Colts on Sunday.
Hibner played 23 offensive snaps in the contest, shifting into the offense when the Ravens lined up for 13-personnel packages. The fourth-round rookie also played nine special-teams snaps, displaying his versatility.

Ravens' Matthew Hibner: Two catches to close preseason
Hibner caught two of three targets for 11 yards in Friday's 41-3 preseason win over the Commanders.
Eight different Ravens caught multiple passes in the rout as neither team used their starters, and Hibner worked with the first-team offense, catching one pass from Tyler Huntley and another from Joe Fagnano. Hibner, a fourth-round rookie out of SMU, is fighting for snaps and targets at tight end behind veterans Mark Andrews and Durham Smythe, with his main competition being fellow first-year player Josh Cuevas.

Ravens' Matthew Hibner: Blanked vs. Minnesota
Hibner failed to haul in his two targets during the Ravens' 13-3 preseason win over the Vikings on Saturday.
Both Hibner and Josh Cuevas were listed as the Ravens' starting tight ends Saturday while Mark Andrews and Durham Smythe did not play. Hibner couldn't haul in either target from Joe Fagnano in the second half, though the Ravens offense as a whole struggled to just 193 passing yards. Hibner, a fourth-round rookie out of SMU, is competing against Smythe for the TE2 role behind Andrews, though Hibner will likely start the regular season as the third-string tight end. The Ravens' preseason finale takes place Friday against the Commanders.

Ravens' Matthew Hibner: Impresses in preseason opener
Hibner brought in all five targets for 61 yards in the Ravens' 24-7 preseason win over the Eagles on Saturday.
The rookie fourth-round pick wasted no time making an impact, recording a 29-yard reception on the Ravens' second play from scrimmage. Hibner added gains of eight and 13 yards on his next two catches, and the SMU product ultimately played into the second half. Hibner finished second on the night in all of receptions, receiving yards and targets for Baltimore, and it may not be long before he makes a case to usurp journeyman Durham Smythe for the No. 2 tight end job.

Ravens' Matthew Hibner: Added by Ravens
The Ravens selected Hibner in the fourth round of the 2026 NFL Draft, 133rd overall.
The Ravens lost tight ends Isaiah Likely to the Giants and Charlie Kolar to the Chargers in free agency, so they're likely hoping Hibner along with free-agent addition Durham Smythe can add immediate depth behind Mark Andrews. Hibner spent six years in college. He caught just two passes through his first four seasons at Michigan before transferring to SMU for his final two years of eligibility and producing 55 receptions for 804 yards and eight touchdowns over 27 games. Hibner is an impressive athlete with a 4.57 40-yard dash at 6-foot-4, 251 pounds, and he's a strong route runner with dependable hands. However, he'll need to immediately prove that his blocking skills can translate to the NFL before he establishes himself in the rotation.
