The Baltimore Ravens might end up having a completely new coaching staff by Week 1 if other teams continue to poach their staff. According to The Athletic’s Jeff Zrebiec, the Ravens are set to lose assistant tight ends coach Andy Bischoff to the Houston Texans.
Bischoff would be following former assistant head coach and wide receivers coach David Culley, who the Texans hired as their newest head coach last week. It’s unclear exactly what role Bischoff would have in Houston but any job on the offense could prove to be a big challenge as Texans quarterback Deshaun Watson has requested a trade this offseason.
Bischoff has been with Baltimore for the last six years and helping the tight end corps over the last three specifically. With the success Mark Andrews, Hayden Hurst, and Nick Boyle have had over that time, it’s not shocking Bischoff received interest from at least one team this offseason.

However, it continues the coaching exodus the Ravens have had this offseason. Bischoff would be just the second offensive coach Baltimore has lost since the end of the season but would be the eighth total coach to depart. With the Ravens making it to the divisional round of the playoffs the last two years, seeing so many coaches leave this offseason could cause a major impact on Baltimore’s ability to repeat or exceed that success in 2021.
