Baltimore Ravens linebacker Kyle Van Noy (eye) is optimistic that he'll play in Week 2 against the Las Vegas Raiders, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. He had fractured an orbital bone just over one week earlier against the Kansas City Chiefs and is currently listed as questionable. Baltimore is expected to run him through a series of pregame tests to confirm that he can play. The 33-year-old offers a veteran presence on defense. However, his production was cut short in Week 1 as he exited after playing 20 percent of defensive snaps and recording just one tackle.
Baltimore Ravens linebacker Kyle Van Noy (eye) left Thursday night's game with an apparent head injury at the time. After receiving some test results, the veteran linebacker was confirmed to have suffered a fractured orbital bone. According to Steve Wyche of NFL Network, Van Noy will undergo further testing to determine how much time he'll have to miss. Normally, it takes at least a few weeks to recover from an orbital fracture, but the extent of the fracture is still unknown at this time. Malik Harrison and Tavius Robinson are the next two on the depth chart, so there will likely be some sort of committee approach to replace Van Noy. Especially since Van Noy was such a big part of the pass-rush last year with 9.0 sacks and 30 combined tackles (20 solo).
The Baltimore Ravens are re-signing outside linebacker Kyle Van Noy to a two-year deal worth up to $9 million. His new contract will pay him $5.25 million in 2024. Originally selected by the Detroit Lions in the second round of the 2014 NFL Draft out of BYU, Van Noy has appeared in games for five organizations. In 142 games with the Lions, Patriots, Dolphins, Chargers, and Ravens, he has racked up 500 tackles (338 solo), 42.5 sacks, 12 forced fumbles, nine fumble recoveries, three interceptions, one defensive touchdown, and 28 run stuffs. In his lone season with Baltimore, he set a career-high in sacks with nine. The 33-year-old is likely at the tail end of his career, but the Ravens are ensuring he's on the roster to help disrupt quarterbacks in 2024 and 2025.
The Baltimore Ravens are signing free-agent linebacker Kyle Van Noy to their 53-man active roster on Saturday, according to a source. The move comes just four days after the team added Van Noy to their practice squad, and now he inks a deal that positions him to be on the roster for the rest of the 2023 season. The 32-year-old 10-year veteran and three-time Super Bowl champion will give the Ravens some more depth in the middle of their defense the rest of the way after injuries to Tyus Bowser, Malik Hamm, David Ojabo and Odafe Oweh. The former second-round pick of the Detroit Lions in 2014 out of BYU played 17 games (13 starts) for the Los Angeles Chargers in 2022 and had five sacks, 46 tackles (30 solo), eight tackles for loss and nine QB hits.
The Baltimore Ravens are signing veteran linebacker Kyle Van Noy to its practice squad on Tuesday. Van Noy was selected in the second round of the 2014 NFL Draft and has spent time with the Detroit Lions, New England Patriots (two stints), Miami Dolphins, and Los Angeles Chargers. He has 470 tackles, 33.5 sacks, and three interceptions thus far in his career. While the 32-year-old will start on the practice squad, there's a good chance he'll eventually be added to the active roster as a versatile defensive piece for John Harbaugh's stop unit.
Free-agent linebacker Kyle Van Noy is expected to visit with the Baltimore Ravens. The veteran linebacker has bounced around over the last few seasons. Despite that, Van Noy has put together respectable numbers basically wherever he goes. Last season, he recorded 46 tackles, eight tackles for loss, and five sacks in 17 games (13 starts) for the Los Angeles Chargers. The 32-year-old is likely looking for a one-year deal on a competitive roster. On paper, this makes sense for both sides, but we'll see if they can come to an agreement on a deal.
The Los Angeles Chargers signed free-agent outside linebacker Kyle Van Noy to an undisclosed deal on Thursday. Van Noy was released by the New England Patriots in March after his second stint with the team.

The 31-year-old was originally a second-round pick by the Detroit Lions in 2014 out of BYU. Van Noy played in three straight Super Bowls with the Patriots from 2016-18, winning two of them. In his eight NFL seasons with the Lions, Patriots and Dolphins, he has recorded 414 tackles (280 solo), 28.5 sacks, 54 QB hits and 39 tackles for loss in 111 games (73 starts). Van Noy should be a starter for a very strong Bolts defense this season.
New England Patriots veteran free-agent linebacker Kyle Van Noy is meeting with the Los Angeles Chargers on Thursday, according to a source.

In 16 games (eight starts) for New England last year, he recorded 66 tackles (42 solo), five tackles for loss, seven QB hits, five sacks, one interception for a touchdown, 10 passes defensed, two forced fumbles and a fumble recovery.

Van Noy immediately becomes a free agent and can sign with another team right away. He played for New England from 2016-19 before joining the Miami Dolphins in 2020. Van Noy returned to the Patriots last year to post 66 tackles (42 solo), five tackles for loss, seven QB hits, one interception for a touchdown, 10 passes defensed, two forced fumbles, one fumble recovery and five sacks in 16 regular season games (eight starts).

He'll be joined by right tackle Trent Brown and defensive back Stephon Gilmore on the PUP list. Van Noy is back in New England after a horrendous year with the Miami Dolphins. It's worth noting Van Noy recorded 6.5 sacks with the Patriots in 2019. The organization is hopeful that a reunion can get him back into his old form.
