Ravens Release John Hoyland, Rookie Tyler Loop Nears Starting Kicker Job

News summary

The Baltimore Ravens are showing strong confidence in rookie kicker Tyler Loop, a sixth-round draft pick, as he appears poised to take over the kicking duties following the release of John Hoyland. Head coach John Harbaugh praised Loop's performance, highlighting his flawless practice session at M&T Bank Stadium where he made all 11 field goal attempts, including impressive 56- and 60-yard kicks. Despite Hoyland's competent performance, roster needs forced the Ravens to release him, signaling their belief that Loop is the best option moving forward. Loop's poise and accuracy have impressed teammates and coaches alike, with Harbaugh giving him an "A++++" after his standout practice. Loop replaced veteran Justin Tucker, who was released after a poor season and multiple accusations of inappropriate behavior. The rookie kicker is embracing the opportunity and has credited Hoyland for pushing him to improve, while focusing on controlling what he can to succeed in the role.
