Ravens finalize trade to acquire QB Jacoby Brissett from Cardinals

They also received a 2027 fifth-round pick as part of the deal. In exchange, the Cardinals received a 2027 fourth-round pick and 2028 seventh-round pick.

Baltimore recently signed QB Austin Reed (Nov. 2nd) to the practice squad and QB Kedon Slovis (Nov. 3rd) to the official 53-man roster. 

Reed previously spent training camp with the Ravens prior to the regular season, while Slovis was claimed off the Green Bay Packers practice squad. 

Brissett, 33, was benched during Sunday's game against the Dallas Cowboys after completing just 10-of-23 passes for 119 yards and one interception. Arizona brought in backup Gardner Minshew, who rallied the team to a 33-30 overtime win to improve to 3-5 on the season. 

The Cardinals signed Brissett to a one-year, $15.5 million contract ahead of the season after the vet was holding out for a new deal. 

Brissett has thrown for 1,719 yards and 10 touchdowns with a 63.3% completion percentage, seven interceptions, and 19 sacks. 

The deal comes after the Ravens (4-5) lost two-time MVP Lamar Jackson with a thumb injury and backup Tyler Huntley with a turf toe injury - both considered to be  season-ending. 

Third-string rookie QB Joe Fagnano was the the starter for the Ravens' Thursday night loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars (6-2).

He completed 10-of-18 passes for just 60 yards with two interceptions. 

Baltimore have lost four straight, giving up at least 35 points in the last three, while scoring only 10 themselves.

The Ravens haven't put up more than 300 yards passing in a single game this season since Jackson threw for 324 yards in Week 1 against the Indianapolis Colts. Running back Derrick Henry hasn't eclipsed more than 60 yards on the ground during their three-game losing streak, while Zay Flowers is coming off a game where he didn't have a single reception.
