Isaiah may be ready to leave after four years in Baltimore, as the athletic tight end will test free agency for the first time with plenty of suitors on the open market. May has made it clear that he enjoyed his time with the Ravens but is looking forward to “blossoming” and helping his team win games.
“I love Baltimore. They took a chance on me when all 31 guys didn’t give me a chance,” Lacley said of his mentality on going long on Gruden. “Ultimately, I tell everyone Baltimore is my home. But business is business, so I’m really just going to see what happens.”
After his training camp was derailed by a broken foot last summer, possibly during a one-on-one session, reports suggested he was close to signing a new contract. He missed the start of the season and finished with 27 catches on 36 targets for 307 yards, both career lows. A possible down season opened the door for Mark Andrews to return, and he signed a three-year, $39.3 million extension, with $26 million guaranteed.

His potential departure could allow Baltimore to target tight ends early, with suitors likely on the open market, and with the addition of new offensive coordinator Sean Mannion, the Eagles can now give the talented pass catcher a chance to win while establishing himself as one of the best players at the position.
The Eagles know when to give up on Zach Ertz, and they could make a similar decision with Dallas Goedert. Although Lakeley is not a local player, he is younger and just as explosive.
Probably a dynamic playmaker and one of Jackson’s most explosive targets. Since joining the Ravens as a 2022 fourth-round pick, he has thrown for 1,568 yards and 15 touchdowns on 135 catches.
