Ravens Fire Offensive Coordinator Marc Trestman

BALTIMORE (WJZ)--The Baltimore Ravens have fired offensive coordinator Marc Trestman, the team announced on Monday.

Trestman is being replaced with Marty Mornhinweg.

"After very careful consideration, I have decided to make a change to our offensive coaching staff and have replaced Marc Trestman with Marty Mornhinweg as offensive coordinator for the rest of the season," said Ravens Head Coach John Harbaugh. "My obligations are to the team, the organization and the fans to be the very best team we can be. Today we find ourselves one game out of the division and conference lead after experiencing two tough losses at home. We will work to be better in every aspect of our football team. Our expectations are high, and we look forward to fulfilling them."

Mornhinweg was hired by the Ravens in 2015.

Prior to Baltimore, he has spent the last two seasons as the New York Jets offensive coordinator. He was previously the offensive coordinator for the Philadelphia Eagles, where he worked with Harbaugh on Andy Reid's staff.

"I appreciate and respect the efforts and contributions Marc has made to the team since his arrival. Marc is a good person and an excellent football coach," Harbaugh said.

The firing was first reported by ESPN's Adam Schefter.
