Stop us if you’ve heard this one before. Ravens assistant G.M. Eric DeCosta won’t be leaving Baltimore.

According to Albert Breer of NFL Media, DeCosta has informed interested teams that he’s not interested in any G.M. vacancies. DeCosta, who is widely believed to be the in-house choice to succeed Ozzie Newsome when Newsome retires, has never given any indication that he wants to leave the franchise.

But his name continues to emerge in pretty much every hiring cycle, which isn’t a bad things for DeCosta. Especially if his annual renewal of vows with the Ravens results in a sweetening of his package from owner Steve Bisciotti.
