Jacoby Brissett trade: Ravens strike deal for Cardinals QB amid injury crisis

Key Points:

• The Baltimore Ravens have agreed to trade for Arizona Cardinals quarterback Jacoby Brissett to address injuries in their quarterback room, with the deal expected to finalize this weekend.
• Ravens' star quarterback Lamar Jackson is sidelined with a potentially season-ending thumb injury, while backup Tyler Huntley also suffered a season-ending turf toe injury, leaving rookie Joe Fagnano, who is dealing with an ankle issue, as the likely starter for the upcoming game.
• Brissett, 33, has started 73 NFL games and has a strong career interception rate of 1.5%, ranking second-lowest in NFL history, and has thrown for 1,719 yards, 10 touchdowns, and seven interceptions this season.
• Despite being demoted to third-string in Arizona, Brissett's experience and past performance, including a notable connection with tight end Trey McBride, provide the Ravens with a veteran option amid their quarterback crisis.
• Baltimore, currently 4-4 and last in the AFC North, hopes Brissett's addition can stabilize their offense and boost their chances of making the playoffs.
