The **2020 season** was the Baltimore Ravens' 25th in the National Football League and the 13th under head coach John Harbaugh, and is the first season following the 2020 redrafting of the entire NFL. The Ravens failed to improve on their 14-2 record from the 2019 season, but did finish first in the AFC North and clinched a playoff berth with a bye. This marked the first time in franchise history that the Ravens were the AFC North Champions for 3 consecutive seasons.

Lamar Jackson won the NFL MVP award for the second consecutive year, and lead the league in passer rating. HB Derrick Henry was named the Super Bowl MVP and the Team MVP, and he ran for 1,971 yards giving him the distinction of being the league leader in rushing yards.

The Ravens defeated the Jets 27-9 in the Divisional Round, then defeated the Broncos 27-7 in the AFC Conference Championship, and ultimately won Super Bowl LV with a score of 31-13, giving the Ravens their third Super Bowl Championship since they moved to Baltimore in 1996. This was also the first Super Bowl in franchise history which did not include Ray Lewis or Ed Reed in the Roster, however Terrell Suggs was on the roster. The Ravens play their home games at M&T Bank Stadium in Baltimore, Maryland.

Following their Super Bowl win, it was announced that the Ravens would retire the numbers of former Middle Linebacker, and Super Bowl XXV MVP Ray Lewis (52), and former Free Safety Ed Reed (20) from use on jerseys of any current and future players.
