Ravens Trade for Jacoby Brissett After Losing Lamar Jackson and Tyler Huntley
Baltimore sends a 2027 fourth-round pick and a 2028 seventh-rounder to Arizona for the benched quarterback and a 2027 fifth-round pick. Brissett asked for a trade after the Cardinals named Gardner Minshew their starter.
The Baltimore Ravens acquired quarterback Jacoby Brissett and a 2027 fifth-round pick from the Arizona Cardinals on Friday for a 2027 fourth-round pick and a 2028 seventh-round pick. Lamar Jackson is on injured reserve with a thumb injury and will miss at least three more games, and backup Tyler Huntley will miss the rest of the season with turf toe, sources told ESPN.
Why did Arizona move him?
The Cardinals benched Brissett late in the third quarter of their overtime win at Dallas and named Gardner Minshew the starter. Before the trade, Arizona converted $2.7 million of his remaining $5.4 million salary into a signing bonus, so Baltimore owes him a $2.43 million base salary plus incentives. General manager Monti Ossenfort called it "a little bit of a perfect storm of a lot of things."
Where do the Ravens stand?
Baltimore is 4-5 after a 33-10 home loss to Jacksonville on Thursday, in which Joe Fagnano threw for 60 yards and two interceptions. It has lost four straight. Asked whether Jackson had hand surgery or could return this season, Jesse Minter said, "I'm not going to speak on that." The trade deadline is Tuesday at 4 p.m. ET.
