While the Baltimore Ravens are still holding their breath for hope this 2025 season, they could trade running back Keaton Mitchell as soon as next week. Trade buzz has been circulating around several reports regarding Mitchell and what his future holds on this roster. At 1-5, the Ravens are likely to be sellers if they wind up losing their next two matchups while being without quarterback Lamar Jackson. If things don’t go the way that the Ravens expect, the team trading Mitchell would make sense to rebuild for next year.
Originally selected as an undrafted rookie in 2023, Mitchell hasn’t had a ton of playing time, and that’s due to their viable backup, Justice Hill, who has been one of the most reliable running backs behind veteran Derrick Henry. Mitchell is the odd man out in this situation unless the Ravens have a formidable plan in place if Henry decides to retire suddenly after the year, which is unlikely. The third-year running back is likely to stay in Baltimore, but it’ll be interesting to see where he ends up if the Ravens are interested in trading him.
Now, it might be time to decide on Mitchell’s future. Baltimore still has one of the best running back units between Henry and Hill, despite the costly fumbles at the beginning of the season.

Baltimore was hoping that Mitchell would emerge as their backup and holding their breath that he could take over the reins of Henry when he’s done. Unfortunately, it doesn’t look like that’ll happen, and these three teams make sense for the running back.
