Ravens finalize Jacoby Brissett trade, swap Day 3 picks with Cardinals

The Baltimore Ravens have finalized a trade with the Arizona Cardinals to acquire veteran quarterback Jacoby Brissett. According to ESPN’s Adam Schefter, the terms of the deal include the Ravens receiving Brissett, a 2027 fifth-round pick, and the Cardinals receiving a 2027 fourth- and a 2028 seventh-round pick. Before finalizing the trade, Arizona restructured Brissett’s contract, so the Ravens will owe him $2.4 million, although Brian McFarland from Russell Street Report notes that some of that money could be pushed into 2027.

To make room on their active roster, the Ravens waived quarterback Austin Reed, who had served as Joe Fagnano’s backup in the previous game against the Jaguars but did not play a snap. Reed could potentially return to Baltimore’s practice squad as a backup quarterback. Brissett will have the opportunity to learn from Declan Doyle’s offense as he prepares for a Week 10 matchup against the Los Angeles Chargers, a game that will undoubtedly be a storyline given ESPN’s primetime schedule.
