Ozzie Newsome, the architect of a pair of Super Bowl winners during his two-plus decades as general manager of the Ravens, is stepping down after the 2018 season.
Assistant GM Eric DeCosta, whom multiple clubs have attempted to lure out of Baltimore as their own general manager over the past several seasons, will take Newsome's reins.
Under the guidance of Newsome, the Ravens have won four division titles and made 10 playoff appearances, including winning both Super Bowls (XXV and XXLVI) in which they appeared. But Baltimore is coming off its third consecutive year of missing the playoffs.
