Diego Pavia Accepted invite to Ravens Minicamp

After going undrafted in the 2026 NFL Draft, former Vanderbilt quarterback Diego Pavia is getting his first NFL opportunity with the Baltimore Ravens. Pavia has accepted an invitation to Baltimore’s rookie minicamp, giving him a chance to prove himself in front of one of the league’s most respected organizations.

Pavia became one of college football’s most exciting stories during his time at Vanderbilt. Known for his toughness, mobility, and competitive style of play, he helped lead the Commodores to a major upset over No. 1 Alabama and finished as a Heisman Trophy runner-up. Despite his strong college résumé, concerns about his size and arm strength likely played a role in him going undrafted.

The Ravens could be an interesting fit for Pavia. Baltimore already has Lamar Jackson and Tyler Huntley on the active roster, but the team reportedly needed quarterbacks for rookie minicamp after not drafting one. For Pavia, this invite is not a guaranteed roster spot, but it is a real chance to show he belongs at the next level.

Pavia’s path has never been traditional, and this next step is another chance for him to keep proving people wrong. If he performs well at minicamp, he could put himself in position for a longer look from the Ravens or another NFL team.
