QB Tyler Huntley

The Ravens already have three quarterbacks they seem to like. Lamar Jackson clearly isn’t going anywhere and Robert Griffin III is the primary backup. If the Ravens keep three quarterbacks, it would seem Trace McSorley would have the roster spot locked up, right? Baltimore kept him on the 53-man roster all season long even though he only played one snap, seemingly protecting him from getting poached off the practice squad. But if McSorley doesn’t show either significant growth as a passer or some serious special teams ability in training camp, Huntley could sneak up on him.

There’s not a quarterback at athletically gifted as Jackson in the NFL but Huntley can hold his own in this regard. A mobile quarterback with experience in a zone-read offense is fitting with the Ravens’ skillset at the position, and his accuracy (73.1% completion rate in 2019) is a pretty major plus on top of that.

With Griffin an unrestricted free agent next offseason, finding a suitable future backup for Jackson is likely on Baltimore’s mind. If Huntley proves he can handle running in the NFL and protects the ball, don’t be shocked if he makes a real push for the third quarterback spot.
