Ravens Sign New QB to Contract, Announce Week 9 Starter After Lamar Jackson & Tyler Huntley Injuries
Key Points:
- The Baltimore Ravens signed quarterback Kedon Slovis, previously on the Green Bay Packers' practice squad, to bolster their quarterback depth following multiple injuries.
- Rookie Joe Fagnano was named the starting quarterback for Thursday night's game against the Jacksonville Jaguars after the Ravens lost their top three quarterbacks to injuries.
- Slovis, a 25-year-old undrafted free agent from BYU, has limited NFL experience with only five regular-season snaps, all with the Arizona Cardinals in 2025.
- The Ravens' starting quarterback Lamar Jackson suffered a thumb injury, and backup Tyler Huntley sustained a toe injury during a recent loss, forcing reliance on less experienced players.
- Baltimore's playoff hopes have been impacted by a three-game losing streak, dropping their record to 4-4 and placing them last in the AFC North.
