The Baltimore Ravens are finalizing a trade to acquire quarterback Jacoby Brissett, according to a report from ProFootball Talk on NBC Sports. The move would add veteran depth to Baltimore's quarterback room as the NFL season progresses toward the trade deadline.
Brissett, who has starting experience with multiple franchises including the Indianapolis Colts, Miami Dolphins, and Cleveland Browns, would provide insurance behind starter Lamar Jackson. The 31-year-old signal-caller has appeared in 48 career games with 32 starts, throwing for 6,668 yards and 21 touchdowns.
Details of the compensation being sent in return were not immediately disclosed. The Ravens have historically valued quarterback depth, particularly given Jackson's unique playing style and injury history. Brissett's mobility and familiarity with multiple offensive systems make him a logical fit for Baltimore's scheme.
The transaction is expected to be completed pending a physical examination. If finalized, Brissett would join the Ravens' active roster immediately and could be available for selection as early as this week's game preparation.
