Former Kentucky assistant & current Ravens QB coach, Tee Martin, praises Devin Leary
The Baltimore Ravens selected Kentucky quarterback, Devin Leary, in the 7th round with the 218th pick in the 2024 NFL draft. Leary transferred in to play in Lexington from NC State and expectations were high, especially as he was being paired with rockstar offensive coordinator, Liam Coen. Unfortunately for Big Blue Nation, the hype of both men did not play out to its fullest. Leary had more than a handful of remarkable throws last season, but there were a few too many he would like to have back.
Regardless, the skillset is there, and it was enough for a flyer draft selection from an NFL contender.
The fit is a bit peculiar, as Leary is not exactly a runner and the Ravens feature a QB-run heavy offense considering they have Lamar Jackson. Still, Leary’s arm strength and time in the more spread NC State offense have the Baltimore coaching staff optimistic about Leary’s potential.
At least, former Kentucky assistant and current Ravens’ quarterbacks coach, Tee Martin, thinks so. Martin served as wide receivers coach at Kentucky from 2010 to 2011. After that, he bounced around to various colleges until he landed with the Ravens in 2021.
When asked about what he has seen from Leary thus far in camp, Martin had good things to say:
“[Devin Leary is] arm-talented, smart [and] competitive, [He] can make all the throws on the field, and he’s doing a really good job of learning the offense and executing the offense. He played in a pro-styled system at [the University of] Kentucky, his last year [after playing] four years at N.C State. [It’s] a different type of system, but we’re kind of a marriage of both. He’s comfortable in what we’re doing. [He’s] very talented, extremely talented. I look forward to him playing in the preseason.”

Veteran, Josh Johnson, is the favorite to win the Ravens’ backup quarterback role, but if Leary can prove himself throughout the summer and preseason, he could latch onto the 53-man roster and make some good money holding a clipboard on the sidelines for a few years until the Ravens or another team calls his number. He is battling fellow rookie Emory Jones out of Cincinnati for the third QB spot.
The Ravens will take on the Eagles on August 9th in their first preseason game.
GRAYSON, Ky. (WSAZ) – New information has been released in the search for a missing woman at Grayson Lake.
According to game wardens with the Kentucky Department of Fish and Wildlife Resources, Marly Kinney, 19, of Ashland, was last seen at Grayson Lake on Wednesday afternoon.
They say search efforts are focused on the water at this time and include Kentucky State Police aerial support, drones, boats, and K9 assistance.
Crews suspend search for missing teen for the night
The search is now into its third day, with officials saying on and off rain has hindered their search and that a group of 50 volunteers are walking the banks of the lake to help in the search.
Search and rescue boats have been seen at the lake as well.
Officials say there are still many questions, including if Kinney is still alive and where exactly she went missing.
They also say they’ve been using a variety of equipment, including sonar and thermal detectors, as well as helicopters and underwater drones.
WSAZ received a statement from Kinney’s family Friday afternoon:
“We are very appreciative of the absolute surplus of support from law enforcement, search and rescue, 1st responders, and all of the community and its volunteers that are here with us and for us searching for Marly. We do not even know how to express our absolute gratitude to you all. We continue to have faith she will be found and brought back to us. We know we have the very best people doing all they can to bring her home.”
Anyone with information is asked to call 911.
We are still working to get more information.

On Thursday, Kentucky’s home and away SEC opponents for the 2026-27 season were revealed and on top of learning the three opponents who they will play twice, there are some very intriguing matchups. In conference play, Kentucky will face six teams who are among the top 25 in many preseason rankings.
In SEC play, Kentucky will play Tennessee, Vandy and Ole Miss all both home and away. The home matchups include Alabama, Arkansas, Auburn, LSU, Ole Miss, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas A&M and Vandy. As for the road tilts, the Wildcats will face Florida, Georgia, Mississippi State, Missouri, Ole Miss, Oklahoma, Texas, Tennessee and Vandy. Let’s take a look at some interesting developments from the schedule release.
John Calipari returns to Rupp Arena (again)
In Calipari’s first year with Arkansas, he got the best of Kentucky when he came into Rupp Arena and left with a 10-point victory, a game where you could really feel the tension all game long in the building from Kentucky fans, which translated onto the court with the players. Last season, it was Kentucky who shocked everyone when they stole one on the road against a top 20 Arkansas team after a rough up-and-down season up to that point. Now, the two will face off again as Kentucky will look to get the win in Rupp and make sure Calipari doesn’t get two in a row in the building. It’ll be another highly-anticipated showdown.
Kentucky hits the road at Texas
This is shaping up to be a major challenge for Kentucky next season and may even end up being one of the biggest games of the season. Texas is seen by many as a clear top 10 team, with some even having them within the top five and when you combine that with the fact that the game is on the road, the Wildcats will have their hands full. The Wildcats fell to the longhorns in the 2024-25 season, and it’ll be a much stiffer challenge this time.
Which game could be a trap?
We don’t have the game-by-game dates yet, so it’s hard to say with a lot of confidence, but opponent-wise, Georgia could really give Kentucky fits. In Pope’s first year, his team struggled handling the physicality of the Bulldogs and now, they’ve retained one of their best guards for another year and have added physicality through the portal. Mike White’s teams love to make opponents uncomfortable and they could do that once again down in Athens. Another sneaky team to watch is Oklahoma, who will have very good guard play. Kentucky will face both teams on the road.
Overall, it’s a pretty fair SEC schedule for a Kentucky team who has the capability of a return to being atop the conference once again. Mark Pope has such a system-fit squad and he can do some damage in the SEC.
