The Baltimore Ravens are set to acquire veteran quarterback Jacoby Brissett from the Arizona Cardinals, according to a person with knowledge of the trade, as reported by The Associated Press on Wednesday. The deal has not been finalized. Brissett, 33, started eight games for the Cardinals this season but was moved to the third-string after Gardner Minshew's impressive performance, which led the team to a dramatic 33-30 comeback victory at Dallas.
The Ravens, who are currently 4-4, urgently needed a quarterback following the season-ending injuries to star Lamar Jackson, who will undergo thumb surgery and is out indefinitely, and backup Tyler Huntley, who is also out for the remainder of the season with a toe injury. Undrafted rookie Joe Fagnano is scheduled to start for the Ravens against the Jacksonville Jaguars in a Thursday night game.
Brissett, a 23-50 starter in 11 seasons, boasts a 63.3% completion rate and has thrown for 1,719 yards, 10 touchdowns, and seven interceptions this year.
