Cam Cameron will be back in Baltimore for another season.


The Ravens announced Friday that they have signed Cameron to an extension after already serving as the Ravens’ offensive coordinator for four years.

Cameron’s return will keep some continuity among the Ravens’ assistant coaches. Baltimore lost Defensive Coordinator Chuck Pagano to the Colts this offseason, but Cameron will be back to lead the offense that came within seconds of reaching the Super Bowl.

Cameron’s contract was set to expire this offseason. 

Under Cameron in 2011, the Ravens finished the season ranked 15th in total yards, 19th in passing and 10th in rushing. They finished fourth in the AFC in scoring.

“It was a good year,” Head Coach John Harbaugh said. “We turned a lot of things over as an offense.”

The Ravens had four Pro Bowlers on offense – right guard Marshal Yanda, fullback Vonta Leach, running back Ray Rice and left guard Ben Grubbs.

Cameron also coached the quarterbacks this season, and Joe Flacco finished the year with 3,610 passing yards and 20 touchdowns. Harbaugh said it has not yet been determined if Cameron will coach the quarterbacks again next season.

“We’ll see where all that goes down the line,” Harbaugh said when asked if they are planning to bring in a quarterbacks coach. “That’s a possibility.”
