Elijah Sarratt, the former Indiana University wide receiver, has agreed to a four-year contract with the Baltimore Ravens worth $5,563,620, a deal that includes a $1,183,620 signing bonus and a fully guaranteed amount of the same figure.
The agreement was first reported by Spotrac and reflects the Ravens’ confidence in the player’s potential after he was selected in the fourth round of the NFL Draft.
Sarratt will wear the No. 13 jersey in Baltimore, a number he has carried throughout his collegiate tenure, and his base salary for the 2026 season is projected at $885,000.
His draft position, the No. 115 overall pick, marks a continuation of Indiana’s recent draft success, as the Hoosiers have seen multiple wideouts selected in the same class for the second time in program history.
From Hoosiers to the Pros
Sarratt’s move to the professional ranks follows a two-year stint at Indiana in which he amassed 65 receptions for 830 yards and 15 touchdowns in 2025, building on a 2024 season that saw him record 53 catches for 957 yards and eight scores.
The transition was facilitated by his decision to transfer to Indiana after head coach Curt Cignetti and his staff moved from James Madison University to Bloomington, a shift that helped the Hoosiers contend for a national title.
During his senior year, despite missing two games and most of a third, Sarratt still managed to lead the team in receiving yards and touchdowns, delivering a memorable game-winning catch in the Big Ten Championship Game in December.
A Deal Worth Millions
The contract places Sarratt among a select group of recent Hoosiers alumni who have secured multi-year deals after the draft, a milestone that reflects both his on-field production and the strategic vision of the Ravens’ front office.
As the Ravens prepare for the upcoming season, Sarratt’s addition to the receiving corps adds depth and versatility, positioning him to compete for meaningful snaps early in his rookie campaign.
