Fagnano endures rough first NFL start in Ravens’ loss to Jags

Joe Fagnano's wife has been instrumental in preparing him for his first career start as the Baltimore Ravens' starting quarterback in Thursday Night Football. As noted during the broadcast, she would go over plays with him at home and test him on various calls to ensure he was ready if his name was ever called. When both Lamar Jackson and Tyler Huntley were sidelined with injuries, Fagnano found himself taking on the starting role just a few days after coming onto the roster as an undrafted rookie.

Although he has played well, leading the Ravens to a field goal in his first possession, the Ravens are still trailing the Jacksonville Jaguars by 17 points at halftime due to a significant deficit. Fagnano will need to overcome this challenge in his first career start to secure a victory for the Ravens.
