Ravens lose Jackson and Huntley to season-ending injuries

Summarised from 2 outlets · Updated 4 Nov, 14:04 · Archive

Baltimore Ravens starting quarterback Lamar Jackson was injured on the first play of Sunday's game against Buffalo, and backup Tyler Huntley suffered a season-ending turf toe injury in the second quarter.

The Baltimore Ravens' quarterback crisis deepened dramatically on Sunday when both their starting quarterback and backup suffered significant injuries during their game against Buffalo. Lamar Jackson was injured on the first play of the game, and Tyler Huntley replaced him but was injured in the second quarter when defensive lineman Ed Oliver tackled him. The Ravens lost the game 35-36.

Huntley suffered a turf toe injury severe enough to end his season. He is expected to undergo surgery and go on injured reserve. Jackson is also expected to go on injured reserve with no clear return date.

Undrafted rookie Joe Fagnano, who played college football at UConn, stepped in as the emergency quarterback and completed 10 of 21 passes for 91 yards with one interception. He is expected to start Thursday's game against Jacksonville despite suffering an ankle injury on Sunday that left him unable to practice Tuesday. The Ravens also signed Kaden Slovis from the Packers' practice squad and Austin Reed as backup options. It remains unclear whether the Ravens will attempt to trade for a quarterback before next week's trade deadline.
