The Baltimore Ravens didn’t know exactly which quarterback they’d be going up against, until 6:16 pm. It was announced on Twitter that Jacoby Brissett will start tonight as Tua Tagovailoa is still recovering from a finger injury. Brissett is a decent starter in the league and can put up numbers and has a better chance of making an impact on the game so the Baltimore Ravens defense needs to be prepared for the big plays. It’s another setback for the former first-round draft pick out of Alabama who still can’t seem to stay healthy.
Jacoby Brissett will start for Dolphins tonight, sources tell me. Tua will backup still recovering from fractured middle finger.

The Baltimore Ravens need to start the game fast and get a lead early in order to prevent the Miami Dolphins from having a chance to win. Jacoby Brissett is very capable of putting up numbers with his arm and his legs. Brissett will probably be targeting Anthony Averett on the outside. With the absence of Brandon Williams, the front-seven needs to get good pressure on Brissett.
