Iowa defensive lineman Aaron Graves is expected to sign with the Baltimore Ravens, according to CBS Sports’ Matt Zenitz. Graves racked up 122 tackles and 16 1/2 sacks in his career.
In 2025, Graves was a second-team All-Big Ten selection, totaling 37 tackles and five sacks. Graves also recorded 6 1/2 tackles for loss and recorded one interception last season.
Graves forced four fumbles and knocked down five passes from his defensive line position in his career and nearly took back his one career interception for a touchdown against Wisconsin last season.
Graves was also an All-Big Ten honorable mention in 2024, where he racked up a career high six sacks and eight tackles for loss. He also collected 33 total tackles and forced three fumbles.
Graves started all 13 games in 2024 and 2025, and played in 56 games in his career. He and his wife, Aubrey, welcome their first son, Grayson, on Thanksgiving Day. Graves still made the trip for Iowa’s game against Nebraska the next day, where he recorded two tackles and a pass breakup and earned a game ball in the locker room.
