The Baltimore Ravens have finalized a trade with the Arizona Cardinals to acquire veteran quarterback Jacoby Brissett and a 2027 fifth-round draft pick. In exchange, the Cardinals received a 2027 fourth-round pick and a 2028 seventh-round pick. The move addresses a critical depth issue for the 4-5 Ravens, who recently lost both Lamar Jackson and Tyler Huntley to injuries. Brissett, who started eight games for Arizona this season before being benched for Gardner Minshew, is expected to start for Baltimore in their Week 10 game against the Chargers.
