    Anthony Weaver’s hiring comes days after the Ravens hired former Chicago Bears offensive coordinator Declan Doyle as their new OC. Ravens coach Jesse Minter outlined the things Doyle would bring to the table in Baltimore.

    “We are thrilled to welcome Declan to the Ravens Flock,” Minter said. “An architect of offense, Declan will build around our players through communication, collaboration, relationships and trust.
