2026 Outlook
Preseason stud (August 27): Hibner caught all five of his targets for 61 receiving yards in his first preseason action, earning stud status from FantasyPros. The Ravens signed Durham Smythe as a blocking specialist this offseason but "would much prefer that Hibner pushes him for snaps, as Hibner offers far more as a receiving threat." While Hibner won't dislodge Mark Andrews in 2026, if he continues producing at this level "the veteran may be on notice for 2027." (per 14 Preseason Studs (2026 Fantasy Football) - FantasyPros)
Day 3 rookie praised as a well-rounded, three-down prospect. Showed strong yards-per-route-run and athleticism in preseason debut with significant workload. Ranked inside top 50 dynasty tight ends and top 10-12 of rookie tight end class. Has more blocking ability than typical receiving-focused tight ends. (per 10 Dynasty Fantasy Football Sleepers to Target (2026) - FantasyPros)
Preseason Week 1 vs. Philadelphia: Hibner saw 32 snaps and caught 5 passes for 61 yards, showcasing his receiving ability and getting extended opportunities in the Ravens' opener. (per Ravens snap count vs Eagles Takeaways from preseason opener)
