Trade Finalized
The Ravens are completing a deal to bring in quarterback Jacoby Brissett from the Cardinals. Baltimore has been without its top two signal callers due to injuries, leaving the team to rely on undrafted rookie Joe Fagnano for the upcoming matchup against the Jaguars. The Ravens sit at 4-4 and last in the AFC North.
Brissett's Recent Role
Brissett started the previous 20 games for Arizona before being benched late in the third quarter of a 33-30 overtime win. The Cardinals finished 3-5 this season with him under center and 1-11 the year before. He requested a trade after learning he would drop to third on the depth chart behind Gardner Minshew II and Carson Beck.
Performance and Background
Over those 20 games Brissett led the league in dropbacks, completions and attempts. He ranked third in passing first downs, fourth in completion percentage over expected, fifth in passing yards and seventh in passing yards and broken sacks. He was sacked 62 times and contacted 241 times. His offense ranked fourth in time of possession, 10th in yards and turnovers, 16th in total points and yards per game, and 21st in points per game. Brissett will rejoin quarterbacks coach Israel Woolfork and is set to earn 15.5 million dollars guaranteed this season.
