**Brown:** As one of the [Ravens’ many pending free agents](https://www.baltimoreravens.com/news/ravens-free-agents-2026-list-tyler-linderbaum-isaiah-likely-jordan-stout), Stout picked the perfect time to enjoy his first Pro Bowl and All-Pro season in 2025.
Stout realistically could become the NFL's highest-paid punter at 27 years old with a bright future ahead. He may test the market, but after the 2025 season ended, Stout expressed his desire to remain in Baltimore, saying, "I don't want to be anywhere else."
In addition to having a strong leg, Stout has also become proficient at directional kicks and has developed a "boomerang" punt whose rotation makes it difficult to catch. He led the league in net punting average, and he finished fourth in gross punting average.
The Ravens drafted Stout in the fourth round in 2022 because they believed in his ability. He works diligently at his craft and is always looking for new punts to add to his arsenal. He has also served as Baltimore's holder on field goal attempts.
Baltimore has enjoyed some long relationships with former specialists like Sam Koch, Justin Tucker, and Morgan Cox. I'm confident the Ravens would like to re-sign Stout if the price is right. The Ravens have other pending free agents like Linderbaum and tight end Isaiah Likely, who are high priorities. Stout could land elsewhere, but my gut feeling is that the Ravens will find a way to keep him. It's definitely a situation to monitor.
