Hibner is a fourth-round pick for a Ravens team that likes to use multiple tight ends. He is not worth drafting outside of Dynasty leagues, but keep an eye on Hibner if Mark Andrews were to miss any time.

Ravens' Matthew Hibner: Impresses in preseason opener
Rotowire
Hibner brought in all five targets for 61 yards in the Ravens' 24-7 preseason win over the Eagles on Saturday.
The rookie fourth-round pick wasted no time making an impact, recording a 29-yard reception on the Ravens' second play from scrimmage. Hibner added gains of eight and 13 yards on his next two catches, and the SMU product ultimately played into the second half. Hibner finished second on the night in all of receptions, receiving yards and targets for Baltimore, and it may not be long before he makes a case to usurp journeyman Durham Smythe for the No. 2 tight end job.

Ravens' Matthew Hibner: Added by Ravens
Rotowire
The Ravens selected Hibner in the fourth round of the 2026 NFL Draft, 133rd overall.
The Ravens lost tight ends Isaiah Likely to the Giants and Charlie Kolar to the Chargers in free agency, so they're likely hoping Hibner along with free-agent addition Durham Smythe can add immediate depth behind Mark Andrews. Hibner spent six years in college. He caught just two passes through his first four seasons at Michigan before transferring to SMU for his final two years of eligibility and producing 55 receptions for 804 yards and eight touchdowns over 27 games. Hibner is an impressive athlete with a 4.57 40-yard dash at 6-foot-4, 251 pounds, and he's a strong route runner with dependable hands. However, he'll need to immediately prove that his blocking skills can translate to the NFL before he establishes himself in the rotation.
