Overview

  • The Ravens completed the trade Friday, Nov. 6, receiving veteran QB Jacoby Brissett from the Arizona Cardinals along with a 2027 fifth-round pick.
  • Arizona received a 2027 fourth-round pick and a 2028 seventh-round pick in the swap and paid more than half of Brissett’s remaining 2026 salary, according to reporting.
  • Baltimore’s move follows the team placing Lamar Jackson and Tyler Huntley on injured reserve, leaving the roster without its top two quarterbacks and creating an urgent need at the position.
  • Brissett, 33, had been benched in Arizona after eight starts this season and has thrown for 1,719 yards, 10 touchdowns and seven interceptions in 2026; NFL insiders say he is expected to be the Ravens’ likely Week 10 starter against the Chargers on Nov. 16.
  • The deal is explicitly short-term in scope because Baltimore gave up a higher 2027 pick and a late 2028 pick to secure an experienced starter while it prepares for the coming weeks and the approaching trade deadline.
