Malik Harrison has received a second contract with the Baltimore Ravens, the team that selected him with the No. 98 overall pick in the 2020 NFL draft.

According to a report from Adam Schefter of ESPN, the Ravens and Harrison have agreed to a one-year contract in 2024. The former Ohio State linebacker has been with the organization for four seasons, recording 120 tackles, four tackles for loss and one pass breakup across 61 appearances and 27 starts.

Harrison will return to Baltimore as one of the team’s most experienced linebackers. Patrick Queen, the Ravens’ No. 28 overall pick in the 2020 draft, signed a three-year, $41 million deal with the Pittsburgh Steelers on Tuesday.

At Ohio State, Harrison appeared in 42 games and collected 205 tackles (136 solo), 29 tackles for loss, nine sacks, nine pass breakups, three fumble recoveries and one interception. He received honorable mention All-Big Ten honors in 2018, his first season as a starter, and first-team All-Big Ten honors in 2019.

A Columbus native, Harrison attended and graduated from Walnut Ridge High School, where he played football and basketball. Harrison was a three-star prospect on the gridiron and played quarterback, running back, wide receiver, linebacker and safety in his four years for the Scots.
