Ravens acquire Brissett as bridge QB to keep playoff hopes alive during Jackson/Huntley injuries.
Acquired by the Ravens from Arizona as QB depth after injuries to Lamar Jackson and Tyler Huntley; described as a 'bridge passer' capable of providing 'base level of play' and keeping the team's playoff hopes alive. Mark Myers notes Brissett can 'push the ball down the field and feed the Ravens' weapons better than any of the current healthy options could,' though his 2026 season has been worse than his 2025 campaign (23/8 TD/INT ratio). Multiple analysts view him as serviceable veteran leadership and a way to keep the offense watchable rather than a game-changer.
Benched mid-game, then traded to Ravens within 24 hours; now QB3.
Brissett went from Cardinals starter to QB3 in less than 24 hours after being benched mid-game in a 33-30 win over the Cowboys in favor of Gardner Minshew, then traded to the Ravens the following day. The source notes he is a seasoned veteran with a low salary who should become a rental for Baltimore for the remainder of the season, heading to the AFC North where he previously played for Cleveland in 2022.
Brissett's poor Cardinals play doesn't negate his history of supporting pass-catchers.
Brissett was benched for Gardner Minshew in Arizona and wasn't playing well with the Cardinals, ranking outside the top 20 in red zone completion rate, pressured completion rate, deep ball completion rate, and catchable pass rate. However, there is a large sample size of Brissett being able to support strong fantasy seasons from his pass-catchers. He should be serviceable enough to sustain drives for the Ravens offense.
Brissett acquired as Ravens starter; limited rushing upside vs. Jackson.
Brissett is being acquired by the Baltimore Ravens to serve as the starting quarterback while Lamar Jackson recovers from a potentially season-ending injury. The source notes Brissett has passed for 1,719 yards, 10 touchdowns, and 7 interceptions this season with Arizona. However, he is far less of a running threat than Jackson or Huntley, having last broken 200 rushing yards in a season in 2022, and has never had a winning season record as a starter.
Brissett's 5,085 yards, 33 TDs in two seasons with Cardinals; better Ravens roster.
Brissett was the Cardinals' starter for most of the past two seasons, throwing for 5,085 yards with 33 touchdowns and 15 interceptions. While that production didn't lead to many wins in Arizona due to poor supporting cast, the Ravens have a much better roster and Brissett can at least get the ball to playmakers like Zay Flowers, though he is not expected to save Baltimore's season or help them win the division.
Brissett traded to Ravens as viable backup after Cardinals benched him.
Brissett was traded from the Cardinals to the Ravens on Wednesday after being benched and demoted to third-string behind Gardner Minshew II and rookie Carson Beck. With the Ravens' starting quarterbacks injured, Brissett will serve as a viable backup option for the rest of the season, allowing Baltimore to run a competent offense with playmakers like Zay Flowers rather than playing out the string uncompetitively.
Brissett benched and traded; no longer starter vs. Rams
Brissett was traded from the Arizona Cardinals to the Baltimore Ravens after struggling against the Cowboys defense on Sunday, prompting benching in the second half. The Cardinals gave him a $21 million raise this season expecting him to help them win, but the move backfired; he will no longer start against the Rams next week.

Brissett traded to Ravens; non-mobile QB will require offensive scheme shift.
Jacoby Brissett is being traded from Arizona to Baltimore to serve as the Ravens' primary backup/potential starter. A third-round pick in 2016, Brissett has started 73 times with a 23-50 record. He is not a mobile player, which will require offensive coordinator Declan Doyle to significantly alter game-planning from the dynamic approach used with Jackson and Huntley. Brissett completed 63.3% of passes for 1,719 yards, 10 TDs, and 7 INTs with a 79.7 passer rating in 8 starts for Arizona this season.

Brissett replaced by Minshew in Arizona; deemed horrendous.

Brissett's $9.7M salary and third-string status make him poor trade value.
The source identifies Brissett as a potential trade deadline candidate for teams seeking short-term QB help, but notes he has 73 mostly unremarkable NFL starts and was just demoted to third string in Arizona; any team trading for him would have to pick up the remainder of his $9.7 million base salary, more than three times new QB1 Minshew's base compensation, making waiting for a potential release after the deadline the better approach.
