Overview
- Lamar Jackson injured his right thumb on Sunday, will undergo surgery and is expected to be placed on injured reserve.
- Tyler Huntley suffered turf toe in the same game and is expected to miss the remainder of the 2026 season.
- The Ravens are finalizing a trade for veteran Jacoby Brissett from the Arizona Cardinals but the deal is not expected to close until the weekend, making him ineligible for Week 9.
- Undrafted rookie Joe Fagnano will start Thursday’s game while Baltimore added Kedon Slovis to the 53-man roster and signed Austin Reed to the practice squad for immediate quarterback depth.
- Baltimore plans to rely more on Derrick Henry and conservative play-calling to protect the roster until Brissett learns the offense and trade terms remain undisclosed as the Nov. 10 deadline approaches.
