After Lamar Jackson, Tyler Huntley and emergency QB Joe Fagnano all land on IR, rookie Joe Fagnano makes his first official start, while the recently acquired Jacoby Brissett remains a backup.

On Thursday Night Football, the Jacksonville Jaguars (5-2) host the Baltimore Ravens (4-4) in the first NFL matchup since the Seahawks fell to the Bears. Trevor Lawrence looks like an MVP contender, backed by a defense featuring Travis Hunter, Travon Walker and Josh Hines‑Allen. The Ravens are shorthanded without Lamar Jackson (thumb injury) and Tyler Huntley (turf toe), prompting a trade for Jacoby Brissett that won’t take effect until the weekend, leaving third‑string UConn rookie Joey Fagnano to start on a short week. First‑year Ravens coach Jesse Minter faces a tough test.

The team’s WR Josh Downs, reportedly seeking a trade, draws interest from the Chiefs and Steelers, though insiders doubt Indianapolis will receive a third‑round pick. Jacksonville’s Brian Thomas Jr. is also rumored to be on the move, with the 49ers mentioned as a possible destination. Houston’s defense sits 19th in points allowed, prompting head coach DeMeco Ryans and GM Nick Caserio to blame execution, not scheme, while DE Will Anderson claims opponents have figured out their approach. RB David Montgomery remains a week‑to‑week groin injury and will miss Week 9.

The Ravens will enter Thursday Night Football against the Jacksonville Jaguars without defensive back Nate Wiggins, who is listed as inactive due to an illness/stinger. Alongside Wiggins, the team also sidelines wide receiver Elijah Stewart, safety Jaylin Hawkins, guard Emery Jones, defensive tackle Aeneas Peebles and quarterback Kedon Slovis. Wiggins, a 2024 first‑round pick from Clemson, has recorded four passes defended and 24 tackles in eight games this season. Jacksonville, now fifth in the league, averages 28.0 points and 227.4 passing yards per game.

Jacoby Brissett won't be on the Baltimore Ravens in time to start Thursday's game against the Jacksonville Jaguars with Lamar Jackson (thumb) and Tyler Huntley (toe) injured, but the plan is reportedly for him to take the field in Week 10.
The Ravens face a crisis after Lamar Jackson and Tyler Huntley land on injured reserve, prompting the team to start undrafted rookie QB Joe Fagnano in Week 9’s primetime clash against the Jacksonville Jaguars.

Fantasy managers also get reassurance that Tuten remains a viable option for their lineups.
The Dallas Cowboys release their injury report ahead of Sunday’s 1:00 p.m. ET road clash with the Indianapolis Colts. Tight end Jake Ferguson (ankle) and wide receiver George Pickens (hamstring) miss Thursday’s practice, while safety Caleb Downs returns as a limited participant after a concussion and ankle issue. The Cowboys’ defense faltered in the fourth quarter of last week’s loss to the Arizona Cardinals, where Downs exited early. Indianapolis, reeling after a blowout by the Jaguars, still leans on star running back Jonathan Taylor and quarterback Daniel Jones. The matchup offers Dallas a chance to rebound before a home showdown with the 49ers the following week.
Lamar Jackson sits out Thursday Night Football as the Ravens host the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 9. The two-time MVP suffered a right‑thumb injury on the first snap of the Nov. 1 game versus Buffalo, collided with pass rusher Greg Rousseau, and underwent surgery, landing him on injured reserve for at least four games. Coach Jesse Minter names rookie Joe Fagnano the starter; Fagnano threw 10‑of‑21 for 91 yards, an interception and a fumble in the 36‑10 loss to the Bills but is now cleared to play. Baltimore is 1‑2 without Jackson this season, averaging 17.7 points versus 29 with him. The Ravens must adapt without their star quarterback.
The Ravens officially place quarterbacks Lamar Jackson and Tyler Huntley on injured reserve ahead of Week 9, sidelining both for at least four games. Jackson will undergo thumb surgery with an uncertain return timeline, while Huntley's turf‑toe injury appears season‑ending. Undrafted rookie Joe Fagnano gets the start against Jacksonville, and the team expects to add Jacoby Brissett from the Cardinals for the Chargers matchup in Week 10. Baltimore drops to 4‑5 and faces a likely defeat by the Jaguars, but a win‑or‑lose stretch against the winless Chargers, Texans and Panthers could bring them to 6‑7 before their Week 13 bye. Post‑bye playoff hopes hinge on Jackson’s health and return.

Tyler Huntley is ruled out of the Ravens’ Week 9 Thursday night game against the Jacksonville Jaguars due to a turf toe injury, likely ending his season. The veteran backup had stepped in after Lamar Jackson’s thumb injury on Nov. 1, but now rookie Joe Fagnano makes his first NFL start. Fagnano, who saw action in the Week 8 loss to Buffalo, was cleared to practice despite an ankle tweak. Huntley has thrown for 727 yards, four TDs and one INT in five games this season, highlighted by a 30‑23 OT win over Atlanta in Week 5.
In Week 9 Thursday Night Football, the Baltimore Ravens thrust rookie Joe Fagnano into his first NFL start after injuries sideline both Lamar Jackson (thumb surgery, IR) and Tyler Huntley (season‑ending turf toe). Backup Kedon Slovis, signed from the Packers’ practice squad, sits behind Fagnano, while Austin Reed remains a peripheral option. Opposing them, the Jacksonville Jaguars field veteran Trevor Lawrence with Quinn Ewers as backup, offering stark contrast in quarterback stability. The matchup pits an inexperienced Ravens Q B corps against a settled Jaguars unit, setting the stage for a pivotal quarterback‑room storyline.

The coach announces his debut against Jacksonville on Nov 5, 2026. The profile also highlights his college accolades, including a Fenway Bowl MVP and Heisman candidacy.
Jacksonville’s lead back Bhayshul Tuten is cleared to play Thursday night against the Baltimore Ravens despite ankle and foot injuries that sidelined him all week. After a 42-7 win over the Colts where he posted 159 scrimmage yards, two touchdowns and became the first Jags player since 2007 to hit 100 rushing, 50 receiving yards and multiple scores in a game, Tuten is expected to receive a near‑normal workload.
