2026 Outlook
Campbell returned to the Ravens for his 19th NFL season and has indicated 2026 will likely be his final year in professional football. He told reporters in early June that he expects the 2026 campaign to be his last, citing his continued passion for the game and his effectiveness ("I love it, I'm still fairly good at it and they still want me to play"). Campbell remains a difference-maker despite his age, recording five-plus sacks in each of his last four seasons. A significant personal motivation: he won a Super Bowl as a rookie with Arizona after the 2008 season but never earned a ring—a gap he hopes to fill in 2026 with Baltimore (per Calais Campbell still loves football at 39, expects 19th NFL season with Ravens to be his last - Yahoo Sports).
