The Baltimore Ravens are known for finding value in free agency, often signing under-the-radar players who go on to play key roles in their system — like their 2024 off-season signing of running back Derrick Henry. While they are unlikely to be big spenders this offseason, the team could still make smart, strategic moves to bolster their defense. With their reputation for developing versatile linemen, the Ravens may have their eyes on a rising defensive talent who fits their mold perfectly.
According to Marcus Mosher of The 33rd Team, one potential signing to watch is Dallas Cowboys defensive lineman Chauncey Golston. “The Baltimore Ravens are unlikely to be big spenders in free agency, but they also manage to sign a few players that end up having big roles moving forward,” Mosher wrote. “Chauncey Golston is an ascending player who can play all across the defensive line and in any defense.
” Baltimore Ravens head coach John Harbaugh Tommy Gilligan-Imagn Images Tommy Gilligan-Imagn Images Golston became a full-time starter in Dallas last season and showed flashes of being an impact player. While the Cowboys’ season did not end very well, moving on to a winning team could motivate this player.
Standing at 6-foot-5 with impressive height and versatility, he possesses the traits that Baltimore looks for in defensive linemen. He may not be a household name, but his ability to play multiple positions across a defensive front makes him a strong fit for the Ravens’ system.
Baltimore’s defense thrives on depth and rotational flexibility, and adding a player like Golston could provide immediate value to a team that is a few pieces away. With the ability to contribute in multiple roles, he would offer insurance along the defensive line and strengthen a unit that already features some of the league’s top playmakers. If the Ravens can land Golston on a team-friendly deal, he could become yet another underrated free-agent addition that thrives in Baltimore’s defense
