With Lamar Jackson and Tyler Huntley both injured, Joe Fagnano is next in line despite his own ankle issue.
The Ravens are down to their third option at quarterback for Thursday night's game against the Jaguars. Lamar Jackson and Tyler Huntley are both sidelined with injuries, pushing rookie Joe Fagnano into the starting role.
Fagnano himself is not fully healthy. He is dealing with an ankle injury, and coach Jesse Minter said the rookie has "a chance" to play. That is not exactly a ringing endorsement, but with no healthy alternatives on the roster, the Ravens may not have much choice.
It is an unusual spot for a team to be in during a short week, with the top two quarterbacks already out and the emergency option working through his own injury. If Fagnano cannot go, it is unclear who else the Ravens would turn to, since the sources do not name another option.
The situation underscores how thin Baltimore's quarterback depth has become. For now, all eyes are on Fagnano's ankle as Thursday night approaches.
