Who is Joe Fagnano? Ravens starting 25-year-old undrafted rookie QB vs. Jaguars on 'Thursday Night Football'

Joe Fagnano, a 25-year-old undrafted rookie quarterback from Williamsport, Pennsylvania, has taken on the role of starting quarterback for the Baltimore Ravens in Thursday Night Football. He joins a team that has recently lost their starting signal-callers Lamar Jackson and Tyler "Snoop" Huntley to injury. Fagnano, who spent seven seasons playing college football in New England, is currently nursing a right ankle injury and is playing through some pain, though he insists it feels fine.

Despite not being at full health, Fagnano will be making his regular-season debut under center for the Ravens, becoming only the second undrafted rookie quarterback in the franchise's 32-year history to start a game.
