The New York Giants are targeting Baltimore Ravens center Tyler Linderbaum this offseason.
On Wednesday’s episode of the Giants Nation Show, ESPN’s Jordan Raanan reported that the Giants are among the teams in the mix to sign Linderbaum once the NFL’s free agency signing window opens on March 11.
Linderbaum is one of the top centers in the NFL. The 25-year-old allowed just two sacks and one hit in 2025. He earned an overall player grade of 80.2 from Pro Football Focus for his performance last season and ranked fourth among all centers with a run-block grade of 83.7 from PFF.
Linderbaum helped Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson and running back Derrick Henry rush for 1,921 and 915 yards, respectively, in 2024.
Linderbaum’s four-year, $13.2 million rookie contract with the Ravens is set to expire this March. The Giants have already begun creating additional salary cap space, as they released inside linebacker Bobby Okereke on Tuesday, freeing up $9 million in cap room.
