Ravens sign undrafted QBs Diego Pavia, Joe Fagnano before minicamp

Key Points:

• The Baltimore Ravens signed undrafted Vanderbilt quarterback Diego Pavia ahead of his scheduled rookie minicamp tryout, aiming to have him and undrafted Connecticut quarterback Joe Fagnano compete on equal terms.
• Pavia, a highly accomplished college player, finished second in total yards per game among FBS players and led Vanderbilt to its first-ever double-digit win season with a 10-3 record.
• Despite his college success, Pavia faced scrutiny over his age (24), height (5-foot-10), and off-field decision-making, including a controversial social media post after finishing as Heisman Trophy runner-up.
• Pavia earned multiple accolades, including first-team All-American, SEC Offensive Player of the Year, and the Johnny Unitas Golden Arm Award, throwing 29 touchdown passes and rushing for 10 more last season.
• The Ravens have not guaranteed roster spots for either quarterback but are giving Pavia and Fagnano the opportunity to compete for the team's No. 3 quarterback position.
