Despite the major difference in time to throw, Tyler Huntley (17.6%) has scrambled at almost the exact same rate as Lamar Jackson (17.8%) this season.

Manages Baltimore to win

Huntley completed 16 of 20 passes for 107 yards, one touchdown and no interceptions in Saturday's 41-24 win over the Packers. He added eight rushes for 60 yards.

Analysis: Derrick Henry powered the Baltimore offense, but Huntley did a passable job filling in for Lamar Jackson (back). He attempted passes almost exclusively in short areas of the field, with only three of his completions going for double-digit yards. Huntley did manage to connect with Zay Flowers for a 10-yard touchdown early in the fourth quarter and also picked up 25 yards on a drive just before halftime to help set up another score. Overall, Huntley helped keep the offense on schedule, and he…read more

In line to start for Jackson

With Lamar Jackson (back) inactive, Huntley is slated to start Saturday night's game against the Packers, Ryan Mink of the Ravens' official site reports.

Analysis: Huntley will be making his second start of the season, with Cooper Rush in line to back him up Saturday. While filling in for Jackson in Week 8, Huntley completed 17 of 22 passes for 186 yards and a touchdown and added 53 yards on eight carries in a 30-16 win over the Bears. This time around, in a game the Ravens need to win in order to keep their playoff hopes alive, the veteran signal-caller offers an alternative for those who would normally rely on Jackson in their fantasy lineups, are in…read more

Fills in for Jackson

Huntley completed nine of 10 passes for 65 yards in Sunday's 28-24 loss to the Patriots. He added two rushes for two yards.

Analysis: Huntley took over for an injured Lamar Jackson late in the second quarter and managed the team to a pair of scoring drives in the second half. While he passed for a modest yardage total, he kept the offense on schedule, showing strong rapport with DeAndre Hopkins in the process. It's unclear if Huntley will be called upon for Baltimore's Week 17 matchup against the Packers on Saturday night, though the offense may struggle to move the ball in a tough matchup if Jackson remains sidelined.

Efficient in Week 8 win

Huntley completed 17 of 22 passes for 186 yards and a touchdown and added 53 rushing yards on eight carries in Sunday's 30-16 win over the Bears.

Analysis: Facing a Chicago defense missing all three of its starting cornerbacks, Huntley had little trouble finding whatever receivers he wanted, including backup tight end Charlie Kolar for a 10-yard TD in the fourth quarter, while still getting a healthy cut of Baltimore's ground-heavy game plan. It's unclear whether Lamar Jackson (hamstring) will be able to return in Week 9, but if Huntley is under center again, he'll be taking on a Dolphins defense that's been vulnerable this season, although it'll…read more

Starter for Week 8

Huntley will serve as the Ravens' starting quarterback against the Bears on Sunday after Lamar Jackson (hamstring) was ruled out, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

Analysis: Ian Rapoport of NFL Network relayed Saturday morning that Jackson's work with the scout team during Friday's practice indicated that he wouldn't be ready to return from a hamstring injury for Week 8. Jackson's practice participation Friday was downgraded from full to limited, and now that he's been officially ruled out, Huntley will get the start while Cooper Rush serves as the QB2. With Huntley under center, the Ravens may lean more heavily on Derrick Henry and Justice Hill to establish the…read more

Baltimore starter Week 8?

Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports that Lamar Jackson (hamstring) may not be ready to return from a two-game absence against the Bears on Sunday, which would put Huntley in position to make his first start of the season.

Analysis: Although Jackson managed to log a full practice Friday, Rapoport relays that the star quarterback worked exclusively with the scout team, which indicates that he may not be ready to return from a hamstring injury that he sustained in Week 4 against the Chiefs. Huntley was signed off the practice squad to the Ravens' active roster Friday, and head coach John Harbaugh noted that Huntley would be in line to start Sunday against Chicago if Jackson was not cleared to play, with Cooper Rush -- who…read more

Signed to Ravens' active roster

The Ravens signed Huntley to their active roster Friday, Jamison Hensley of ESPN.com reports.

Analysis: Huntley had been on the team's practice squad, but his signing comes as no surprise after coach John Harbaugh revealed Friday that Huntley would get the starting QB nod over Cooper Rush on Sunday against the Bears in the event that Lamar Jackson (hamstring) is deemed unable to play. Jackson is officially listed as questionable for the contest after practicing fully Friday.

Next up, if Jackson can't play

In the event that Lamar Jackson (hamstring) is unable to play Sunday against the Bears, coach John Harbaugh noted Friday that Huntley would get the starting nod over Cooper Rush.

Analysis: Harbaugh described Jackson as a full practice participant Friday but fell short of declaring that the star QB would play Sunday. In any case, if the Ravens elect to hold Jackson out this weekend, Rush isn't in consideration to fill in, after having gone 0-2 while subbing in for the 1-5 team. Huntley thus represents an option for those who roster Jackson and don't already have a contingency plan.

Returns to practice squad

Huntley reverted to the Ravens' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's official transaction log.

Analysis: Huntley appeared in Sunday's 17-3 loss to the Rams, completing 10 of 15 passes for 68 yards. The quarterback also added 39 rushing yards on three rushes in the contest. Huntley replaced Cooper Rush in the fourth quarter, which appeared to be a benching of the latter, but head coach John Harbaugh clarified that the team planned to use both quarterbacks in the game, Cordell Woodland of 105.7 The Fan Baltimore reports. With Lamar Jackson (hamstring) expected back following the team's Week 7 bye…read more

Replaces Rush in loss

Huntley completed 10 of 15 passes for 68 yards, no touchdowns and no interceptions in Sunday's 17-3 loss to the Rams. He added three rushes for 39 yards.

Analysis: Huntley took over for the benched Cooper Rush early in the fourth quarter and led a pair of lengthy drives, each of which stalled deep in Rams territory. While he was far from efficient, Huntley took care of the ball and also showcased some mobility, both of which could give him an advantage to serve as Lamar Jackson's (hamstring) backup in Week 8.

Elevated for Week 6

The Ravens elevated Huntley from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday.

Analysis: With Lamar Jackson (hamstring) ruled out for Sunday's game against the Rams, Huntley will be on the active roster for a second-straight week to serve as the Ravens' backup quarterback behind Cooper Rush. Huntley appeared in five regular-season games for the Dolphins in 2024, when he completed 64.7 percent of his passes for 829 yards, three touchdowns and three interceptions while adding 26 carries for 135 yards and two scores.

Back to practice squad

Huntley reverted to Baltimore's practice squad Monday.

Analysis: Huntley was elevated to the active roster to back up Cooper Rush in the absence of Lamar Jackson (hamstring) for Sunday's loss to the Texans. He was active but did not take any snaps.

Elevated from practice squad

The Ravens elevated Huntley from the practice squad Saturday.

Analysis: With Lamar Jackson (hamstring) ruled out, Huntley will operate as the Ravens' QB2 behind Cooper Rush on Sunday against Houston.

Lands on Baltimore's practice squad

The Ravens are signing Huntley to the practice squad Wednesday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

Analysis: Huntley was cut by Cleveland on Sunday and now returns to a familiar situation as an emergency quarterback for the Ravens, for whom he handled a depth role from 2020-2023. Cooper Rush has operated as the top backup to Lamar Jackson throughout the offseason, but Huntley competing for that role as the season progresses wouldn't be inconceivable.

Cut loose by Browns

Huntley was let go by Cleveland on Sunday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

Analysis: Huntley is the odd man out in the Browns' crowded QB room. The 27-year-old backup landed with Cleveland in early August as the team sorted through its options at signal-callers this preseason, joining at a time when both Kenny Pickett (hamstring) and third-round pick Dillon Gabriel were sidelined by injuries. Huntley then filled in as the backup quarterback during two preseason games -- once behind Gabriel and once more behind fellow rookie Shedeur Sanders. Joe Flacco since has been named…read more

Finishes up Saturday

Huntley completed 10 of 13 passes for 71 yards in Saturday's preseason win over the Eagles.

Analysis: For the second straight preseason game, Huntley backed up one of the Browns' rookie quarterbacks. Last week against Carolina, he entered following Shedeur Sanders (oblique), and then on Saturday, Huntley played the second half after rookie Dillon Gabriel, who overcome a hamstring injury during the week to start. That's all one needs to know regarding Huntley's chances of claiming a roster spot. Injuries have shaped Cleveland's quarterback competition this summer, but conventional wisdom…read more

Ready to start if needed

Huntley could be the starting quarterback in Saturday's preseason game against the Eagles, Noah Monroe of the Browns' official site reports.

Analysis: The Browns are dealing with several injuries in the quarterback room, with only Huntley and Joe Flacco deemed 100 percent. "We'll work through all (the injuries). Obviously, (Huntley) knows exactly what to do, how to do it, so is ready to roll," Cleveland head coach Kevin Stefanski said Thursday. Flacco, the presumptive Week 1 starter, was ruled out from playing by the coach. Shedeur Sanders (oblique) didn't practice this week and is not expected to play. That leaves Dillon Gabriel (hamstring)…read more

Available to play Friday

Huntley is expected to back up Shedeur Sanders in the first preseason game against Carolina on Friday, Cameron Wolfe of NFL Network reports.

Analysis: Huntley signed with Cleveland on Monday and is now expected to play in their preseason opener just four days later. Along with Shedeur Sanders, he is the only available quarterback with Kenny Pickett (hamstring), Dillon Gabriel (hamstring) and Joe Flacco (resting) not playing. The 27-year-old journeyman is now on his fifth team after spending last year in Miami, where he started five games.

Another QB lands in Cleveland

Huntley signed with the Browns on Monday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

Analysis: The signing comes as Kenny Pickett (hamstring), Dillon Gabriel (hamstring) and Shedeur Sanders (shoulder) are all dealing with injuries, per Schefter. In 2024, Huntley spent time with the Browns and appeared in five games with the Dolphins, recording 829 passing yards and three touchdowns with three interceptions. The quarterback would likely need a long-term injury to one or more of the Browns' current QBs to have a chance to stick with the team, as Joe Flacco appears to be the leader in the…read more

Commits three turnovers in loss

Huntley completed 25 of 41 pass attempts for 227 yards, one touchdown and two interceptions while rushing thrice for 16 yards with one fumble lost in Sunday's 32-20 loss to the Jets.

Analysis: Huntley failed to repeat last week's heroic spot-start (277 total yards with two TDs) that helped keep Miami's bleak playoff hopes alive. The veteran backup was actually charged with four fumbles (with only one costing his team possession) to finish with three combined turnovers to just one touchdown thrown. Huntley will finish the 2024 campaign with 829 passing yards on a 65 percent completion rate while tossing three scores to three picks. The 26-year-old will likely earn himself another…read more

Set to start Sunday

With Tua Tagovailoa (hip) inactive, Huntley is slated to start Sunday's regular-season finale against the Jets.

Analysis: While filling in for Tagovailoa in Miami's 20-3 win over the Browns in Week 17, Huntley completed 22 of his 26 pass attempts for 225 yards and a touchdown in addition to rushing seven times for 52 yards and another score. With Tagovailoa sidelined once again, Huntley will continue to helm the offense of the 8-8 Dolphins, who need a win (combined with a Denver loss) in order to qualify for a playoff spot. With that in mind, Huntley offers a lineup option for fantasy managers dealing with QB…read more

Still on track to start Sunday

Head coach Mike McDaniel said Friday that Miami is preparing for Huntley to start at quarterback in Sunday's game against the Jets, with Tua Tagovailoa (hip) not expected to be available for the regular-season finale, Travis Wingfield of the Dolphins' official site reports.

Analysis: As a replacement for Tagovailoa in Week 17, Huntley completed 22 of his 26 pass attempts for 225 yards and a touchdown while rushing seven times for 52 yards and another score in Miami's 20-3 win over the Browns. The 8-8 Dolphins need a win plus a Broncos loss to the Chiefs on Sunday in order to secure a spot in the playoffs. If the Dolphins earn a postseason berth, it's unclear if Tagovailoa would be ready to play in the wild-card round.

Trending toward another start

Head coach Mike McDaniel said Wednesday that the Dolphins are preparing as though Huntley will start Sunday against the Jets rather than Tua Tagovailoa (hip), Cameron Wolfe of NFL Network reports.

Analysis: Wolfe notes that Tagovailoa is slated to be a limited participant in practice Wednesday, and a decision on Miami's starting quarterback for Sunday likely won't be made until the end of the week. That said, Huntley looks to be trending toward another start, on the heels of helming the Dolphins' 20-3 win over the Browns this past weekend. He turned in perhaps the finest performance of his five-year career in Week 17, completing 22 of 26 pass attempts for 225 yards, one touchdown and no…read more

Will get most practice reps Week 18

Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel said Monday that Huntley will get more practice reps than Tua Tagovailoa (hip) this week, Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald reports.

Analysis: Though Tagovailoa hasn't been ruled out for Week 18, McDaniel said the team is in a "gray area" regarding the star quarterback due to his hip injury, per Jackson. With Huntley slated to get most of the reps in practice this week, it appears he has a better chance than Tagovailoa of starting against the Jets on Sunday in a game the Dolphins must win in order to have any chance of making the postseason. Huntley led the team to a victory Sunday versus the Browns, performing well with 225 passing…read more

Performs well in spot-start

Huntley completed 22 of 26 pass attempts for 225 yards and a touchdown while rushing for 52 yards and another score on seven carries in Sunday's 20-3 victory over the Browns.

Analysis: Huntley got the nod under center in place of Tua Tagovailoa (hip) and provided DFS players and deep-league managers with a strong fantasy total in Week 17. The long-time Baltimore backup stepped up to the occasion at a crucial point of the season for the Dolphins in order to keep the team's playoff hopes alive. Tagovailoa's status for Week 18 is still uncertain, but the team will obviously start its top option should he be available for next Sunday's regular-season finale against the Jets.

Starting in place of Tagovailoa

With Tua Tagovailoa (hip) inactive, Huntley is slated to start Sunday's game against the Browns, Cameron Wolfe of NFL Network reports.

Analysis: As a result of Tagovailoa (who had been listed as doubtful) being unable to helm Miami's offense Sunday, Huntley will be making his fourth start of the season. In that fill-in role, Huntley offers a lineup option for fantasy managers in Superflex formats or who are otherwise in need of Week 17 QB help. However, given the rate of production that he put up while previously subbing for Tagovailoa (377 passing yards with a TD and an interception/16 carries for 67 yards and a rushing score in three…read more

Could start, with Tua doubtful

Huntley is expected to start Sunday's game against the Browns after the Dolphins downgraded Tua Tagovailoa (hip) from questionable to doubtful, Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN reports.

Analysis: Unless Tagovailoa shows dramatic improvement leading up to Sunday's 4:05 p.m. ET kickoff, he looks as though he'll be sidelined for the first time since Week 7. In such a scenario, Huntley would be in line for his fourth start of the season, with Skylar Thompson serving as his backup. While Huntley thus represents a possible lineup option for fantasy managers who are still playing in Week 17, his presence under center would amount to a downgrade to all of Miami's pass catchers. In his previous…read more

Moves up depth chart

Huntley will serve as the Dolphins' No. 2 quarterback against the Jets on Sunday, Alain Poupart of SI.com reports.

Analysis: Huntley served as Miami's starting quarterback when Tua Tagovailoa missed time due to a concussion earlier this season. However, the Utah product suffered a shoulder injury in his final start that led to an IR stint and resulted in Skylar Thompson moving into the backup role. Despite being healthy for a Thanksgiving Day matchup, Huntley was inactive, but he and Thompson are apparently set to swap roles in Week 14.

Emergency QB against Packers

Huntley (coach's decision) is inactive but will serve as the Dolphins' emergency quarterback against the Packers on Thursday.

Analysis: Huntley was activated off injured reserve earlier Thursday after missing the Dolphins' last five games due to a right shoulder injury. He will only see the field if Tua Tagovailoa and Skylar Thompson are injured during Thursday's game.

Activated off IR

The Dolphins activated Huntley (shoulder) off injured reserve Thursday.

Analysis: Huntley injured his right shoulder during the Dolphins' Week 7 loss to the Colts, and he was placed on injured reserve Oct. 25. It's unclear whether Huntley or Skylar Thompson will serve as Miami's backup quarterback behind Tua Tagovailoa for Thursday's game against the Packers.

Lands on IR

The Dolphins placed Huntley (shoulder) on injured reserve Friday.

Analysis: Huntley's move to IR comes on the same day that Tua Tagovailoa officially cleared the NFL's concussion protocol. As a result of the transaction, Huntley won't be available before Week 12. With Tagovailoa slated to reclaim starting duties Sunday against the Cardinals, the loss of Huntley leaves Miami with Skylar Thompson, Tim Boyle and practice-squad member C.J. Beathard as potential backup options at quarterback.

Misses Wednesday's practice

Huntley (right shoulder) didn't practice Wednesday, Travis Wingfield of the Dolphins' official site reports.

Analysis: When asked about Huntley's availability as Sunday's game against the Cardinals approaches, head coach Mike McDaniel noted, "I don't think (Huntley) is going to be available this week." While Huntley's Week 8 status is cloudy, Tua Tagovailoa (concussion) returned to a limited practice Wednesday and is trending toward a return to the starting lineup this weekend. If that happens and Huntley is unavailable, Miami's backup options versus Arizona would be Skylar Thompson, Tim Boyle and C.J. Beathard.

Recovery timeline still unknown

The Dolphins still aren't sure how severe the shoulder injury Huntley suffered in Sunday's loss to the Colts is, Travis Wingfield of the Dolphins' official site reports.

Analysis: Huntley was unable to compete after suffering the injury and finished the contest with 87 yards and a touchdown while completing seven of 13 passing attempts and adding 20 yards on the ground. According to head coach Mike McDaniel, it's too early to determine the severity of the injury and have a timeline for the Utah product's recovery. With Tua Tagovailoa (concussion) expected to return to practice Wednesday and play Week 8 against the Cardinals, Huntley's injury isn't expected to impact who…read more

Hurts shoulder Sunday

Huntley was forced out of Sunday's game against the Colts with a right shoulder injury.

Analysis: Before sustaining his injury, Huntley completed seven of his 13 passing attempts for 87 yards and a TD and logged five carries for 20 yards. In his absence, Tim Boyle is in at QB for the Dolphins, with Skylar Thompson serving as the team's emergency third quarterback.

Making third consecutive start

Huntley will remain the Dolphins' starting quarterback for Sunday's game against the Colts, James Trefry of USA Today reports.

Analysis: Huntley will make his third consecutive start for Miami, and he should be more comfortable with the offensive system after using the Week 6 bye to gain a deeper understanding of the playbook. Skylar Thompson (ribs) practiced fully throughout the week and is listed as questionable, but Huntley has been named the starter regardless of Thompson's availability. Tua Tagovailoa is eligible to come off injured reserve Oct. 23, so he could theoretically be in play for a Week 8 return against the…read more

Likely getting another start

Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel said Monday he would "guess to forecast" that Huntley will start Week 7 against the Colts even if Skylar Thompson (ribs) returns to full health, Alain Poupart of SI.com reports.

Analysis: Miami managed to scrape to a 15-10 win over the Patriots with Huntley under center Week 5, but he completed just 18 of 31 passes for 194 yards with no touchdowns and one interception. Huntley's dual-threat capabilities also weren't much of a factor, as he rushed only three times for seven yards. Still, Huntley has looked like the Dolphins' most capable quarterback option with Tua Tagovailoa (concussion) not eligible to come off IR until Week 8. With the benefit of a bye to continue improving…read more

Pedestrian numbers in win

Huntley completed 18 of 31 passes for 194 yards with no touchdowns and one interception and rushed three times for seven yards in the Dolphins' 15-10 win over the Patriots on Sunday.

Analysis: Huntley put together another lackluster performance overall, and unlike in a Monday night loss to the Titans six days earlier, he couldn't complement his passing production with his legs. However, Huntley did look smoother when dropping back, more than doubling the 96 passing yards he'd mustered versus Tennessee and connecting with the trio of Tyreek Hill, Jonnu Smith and Jaylen Waddle on 15 occasions. Given Miami was able to pull off the road win, Huntley figures to retain the starting job for…read more

Set for another start

Coach Mike McDaniel said Tuesday that Huntley will start for Miami on the road against New England on Sunday, Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN.com reports.

Analysis: Huntley was mediocre in his Dolphins debut during Monday's 31-12 loss to the Titans, in which he completed 14 of 22 passes for just 96 yards with no touchdowns or interceptions. He also rushed eight times for 40 yards and one score, providing a bit of a spark for Miami's rusty offense. McDaniel said Skylar Thompson (ribs) is taking longer than expected to recover, per Alain Poupart of SI.com, which informed the team's decision to name Huntley the Week 5 starter. A matchup against the Patriots…read more

Lackluster performance in debut

Huntley completed 14 of 22 passes for 96 yards with no touchdowns or interceptions and added eight carries for 40 yards and one score in the Dolphins' 31-12 loss to the Titans on Monday night. He also lost a fumble and caused a safety with an intentional grounding penalty in the end zone.

Analysis: Huntley admittedly didn't have much time to familiarize himself with head coach Mike McDaniel's complex offensive scheme, but there's no getting around the fact he averaged a meager 4.4 yards per attempt and struggled mightily as a passer. Huntley did contribute plenty with his signature rushing ability, running in the Dolphins' only touchdown of the night on a one-yard run with 3:36 remaining. Huntley's first-quarter fumble didn't lead to any Titans points but did occur in Tennessee territory,…read more

Set to start Monday

Huntley will start Monday against the Titans, Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald reports.

Analysis: Head coach Mike McDaniel confirmed Saturday that Huntley would start after joining the team from Baltimore's practice squad one week earlier. As a result, Tim Boyle will operate as the team's backup. It's a move that could open the offense after Skylar Thompson struggled mightily in his 2024 starting debut before ultimately leaving with a ribs injury late in the Week 3 loss to the Seahawks.

In consideration for Week 4 start

Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel said Tuesday that Huntley is a "possibility" to start Monday's game against the Titans, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

Analysis: The Dolphins signed Huntley off Baltimore's practice squad ahead of the team's Week 3 loss to Seattle, a game in which Skylar Thompson (rib) and Tim Boyle both struggled to get anything going on offense. Huntley has had limited time to integrate himself to Miami's scheme, but the dual-threat abilities he flashed during his time with the Ravens could nonetheless give the Dolphins the best chance to win of their current options at the quarterback position. McDaniel hinted Tuesday that the team…read more

Poached by Miami

The Dolphins are slated to sign Huntley off the Ravens' practice squad Monday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

Analysis: Huntley joins Miami's active roster with Tua Tagovailoa (concussion) working his way through the NFL's protocol for brain injuries, and without a timeline for his return. The Dolphins look primed to start Skylar Thompson on the road versus Seattle on Sunday, but once Huntley is up to speed with the offense, he could be a candidate to make appearances under center. The 26-year-old spent the offseason in Cleveland before returning to Baltimore in early September.

Will work as emergency third QB

Huntley, who recently signed to Baltimore's practice squad, will work as the Ravens' No. 3 quarterback at the start of the regular season, Jeff Zrebiec of The Athletic reports.

Analysis: After Huntley was released by Cleveland on Thursday, the Ravens quickly swooped in to reunite with the veteran signal-caller. There was some initial thought that Huntley would immediately take over as Baltimore's backup quarterback in place of Josh Johnson, but for the time being Johnson will remain the first option behind Lamar Jackson while Huntley begins the campaign in the emergency QB role. Huntley could eventually retake the No. 2 slot that he held over the previous four seasons.

Reunion with Ravens coming

Huntley is expected to sign a contract with Baltimore on Friday, Jordan Schultz of BleacherReport.com reports.

Analysis: Huntley has previously thrived as the backup to Lamar Jackson, and the Ravens are in need of an upgrade at the No. 2 spot over the 38-year-old Josh Johnson. Over the last four years with Baltimore, Huntley logged 20 appearances and nine starts. His effectiveness as a rusher will allow the Ravens to maintain some cohesiveness on offense even in the event that Jackson is forced to miss time at some point this season. The 26-year-old spent the offseason in Cleveland before being released by the…read more

Cut by Cleveland

The Browns are slated to release Huntley on Thursday, Jordan Schultz of BleacherReport.com reports.

Analysis: Cleveland kept four quarterbacks on the first iteration of the 53-man roster and had attempted to trade Huntley, but it looks like there weren't any takers. With Dorian Thompson-Robinson and Jameis Winston viewed as the top backups to Deshaun Watson, Huntley will now get an opportunity to search for a premium reserve role elsewhere. He suited up for 20 games with Baltimore across the past four seasons.

Could be traded

The Browns will field trade offers for Huntley after the team kept four quarterbacks on their initial 53-man roster, Mary Kay Cabot of the Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

Analysis: In addition to Huntley, the Browns are reportedly also entertaining offers on Jameis Winston. The implication is that the Browns view Dorian Thompson-Robinson as the team's top backup to Deshaun Watson.

Plays second half

Huntley completed 14 of 20 passes for 135 yards with two interceptions in Saturday's preseason game against the Vikings. He also gained 19 yards on four carries.

Analysis: Huntley, who ended up leading the club in rushing yards, spent most of the time scrambling, as the Browns sustained multiple injuries along the offensive line. He played the second half after Dorian Thompson-Robinson opened the game, and the two are locked in a battle for the No. 3 job, per Zac Jackson of The Athletic. The Browns like Huntley's ability to scramble and extend plays, but he was forced to run too much Saturday.

Lands with Cleveland

Huntley agreed to a contract with the Browns on Sunday, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

Analysis: Huntley will stick in the AFC North after serving as one of the primary backup quarterbacks behind Lamar Jackson in Baltimore over the past four seasons. The 26-year-old is set to join Cleveland on a veteran minimum deal, according to Tom Withers of the Associated Press. With four accrued seasons under Huntley's belt, this veteran minimum deal should carry a base value of one-year, $1.13 million. He'll likely compete with Jameis Winston and Dorian Thompson-Robinson (hip) for the primary backup…read more

Capable showing in contract year

Huntley finished the 2023 regular season having completed 21 of 37 passes for 203 yards and three touchdowns over five games. He added 15 carries for 55 yards.

Analysis: The bulk of Huntley's production came in his lone start during the final game of the regular season, when he went 15 for 28 for 146 yards with one touchdown. His other appearances came in blowout wins over the Browns, Lions, Seahawks and Dolphins. Huntley could be heading toward an impasse with the Ravens, as he's set to become an unrestricted free agent just as Lamar Jackson's $260 million contract extension kicks in, Baltimore may opt for a more cost-efficient backup quarterback as a result.…read more

Modest output in Week 18 loss

Huntley completed 15 of 28 pass attempts for 146 yards and a touchdown while rushing for 40 yards on eight attempts in Saturday's 17-10 loss to the Steelers.

Analysis: The veteran backup made his first start of the season with the AFC's No. 1 seed opting to rest superstar quarterback Lamar Jackson for an inconsequential Week 18 matchup. Huntley was harassed in the pocket by T.J. Watt (knee) and Co. to the tune of four sacks for a combined loss of 28 yards. Huntley wound up throwing the Ravens' only touchdown in Saturday's defeat, adding 40 rushing yards with no turnovers to produce a modest fantasy score. The 26-year-old will report back to the sidelines when…read more

Tabbed for Week 18 start

Ravens head coach John Harbaugh said Huntley will start Saturday's game against the Steelers.

Analysis: Baltimore has clinched the No. 1 seed in the AFC playoffs and will rest MVP frontrunner quarterback Lamar Jackson, paving the way for Huntley to make his first start of the season. Huntley will face a motivated Pittsburgh defense, as the Steelers have almost no path to the postseason without a win Saturday. The mobile backup has a 3-5 record over eight previous career starts, but Huntley has been effective in limited relief action this season, completing six of nine passes for 57 yards and two…read more

Backup QB for Sunday

Huntley is active for Sunday's contest against the Steelers.

Analysis: Huntley will serve as the backup quarterback behind Lamar Jackson, while Josh Johnson will act as the emergency quarterback for Week 5.

Third QB in Week 1

Huntley is the Ravens' inactive third QB for Sunday's game against the Texans, Brian Wacker of The Baltimore Sun reports.

Analysis: Per Wacker, Huntley indicated Friday that he wasn't quite back from a hamstring issue. As a result, Josh Johnson is slated to serve as Baltimore's No. 2 QB behind Lamar Jackson on Sunday.

Should be available Week 1

Huntley (hamstring) wasn't listed on Baltimore's injury report Wednesday ahead of Sunday's game versus Houston.

Analysis: Despite murmurs back in August that he was in danger of being placed on IR due to a hamstring issue, Huntley looks poised to start the season on the active roster behind Lamar Jackson. Jackson has missed at least one game in all but one of his five NFL seasons, so Huntley knows he needs to stay warm.

Practices Monday

Huntley (hamstring) returned to practice Monday, Jamison Hensley of ESPN.com reports.

Analysis: Though it's a good sign that Huntley was able to work in some capacity Monday, coach John Harbaugh suggests that more will be known about the QB's Week 1 status after the team sees what he does during Wednesday's session. In the event that Huntley isn't available for Sunday's season opener against the Texans, Josh Johnson would be in line to back up Lamar Jackson in the contest.

Works out Wednesday

Huntley (hamstring) didn't practice Wednesday but worked out on an adjacent field, Jamison Hensley of ESPN.com reports.

Analysis: Huntley has been dealing with a hamstring injury since the preseason opener but isn't expected to begin the regular season on injured reserve. Although he didn't participate in the Ravens' practice session Wednesday, he was still able to do more work than he had been doing recently. The 25-year-old has a week and a half to recover before the Ravens' regular-season opener against Houston on Sept. 10.

Expected to avoid IR

Head coach John Harbaugh said Monday that he doesn't foresee Huntley (hamstring) going on injured reserve, Jeff Zrebiec of The Athletic reports.

Analysis: This is a positive update for the backup quarterback, but it remains unclear when he'll be healthy again. Huntley tweaked his hamstring during the Ravens' preseason opener and hasn't practiced or played since. Josh Johnson and Anthony Brown are also on the roster, but if the Ravens are content with Huntley's health, they may cut the other two backups ahead of the 53-man roster deadline Tuesday.

Misses Saturday's preseason game

Huntley (hamstring) was absent during warmups before Saturday's preseason game against the Buccaneers, Brian Wacker of The Baltimore Sun reports.

Analysis: Huntley tweaked his hamstring during the Ravens' first preseason game and has been sidelined since. Head coach John Harbaugh did tell reporters last week that he isn't concerned about his backup quarterback's health going forward, so the team might just be resting the one-time Pro Bowler and making sure he's ready for the regular season. Expect the Utah product to continue backing up Lamar Jackson ahead of the coming season.

Expected to be fine

Head coach John Harbaugh is not concerned about Huntley's (hamstring) status going forward.

Analysis: Huntley has been sidelined since tweaking his hamstring during last Saturday's preseason opener. However, it looks like the Ravens are just exercising caution with their backup quarterback in order to avoid a lingering issue. As of now, it looks like the team still expects him to be the No. 2 quarterback behind Lamar Jackson when Week 1 rolls around.

Misses another practice

Huntley (hamstring) isn't practicing Saturday, Jeff Zrebiec of The Athletic reports.

Analysis: Huntley tweaked his hamstring during last Saturday's preseason contest against Philadelphia and didn't practice at all this week. The injury was initially described as minor, so the Ravens may be acting out of an abundance of caution in opting to hold him out. Huntley seems unlikely to play in Monday's exhibition game in Washington, but there's no indication that he's in danger of missing the start of the regular season.

Remains sidelined

Huntley (hamstring) still isn't practicing as of Wednesday, Jamison Hensley of ESPN.com reports.

Analysis: Huntley left Saturday's preseason opener against the Eagles with the injury and hasn't yet been cleared to resume team drills. His exit from the contest was labeled as precautionary, though it's possible the team is still playing it safe with Huntley in practice, too. Huntley should be locked into the No. 2 role at quarterback behind starter Lamar Jackson.

Dealing with minor hamstring tweak

Huntley left Saturday's preseason contest late with a hamstring tweak, but the issue is expected to be minor, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

Analysis: Huntley was sharp in his limited action, completing eight of 11 passes for 88 yards and a touchdown while rushing twice for 13 yards in the 20-19 win. The Ravens were presumably being precautionary when they sent the undrafted fourth-year quarterback to the locker room, but it wouldn't be surprising to see Huntley miss a couple practices this week to make sure he's back to 100 percent before next Monday's preseason matchup in Washington.

Sharp in preseason debut

Huntley completed eight of 11 passes for 88 yards with a touchdown and no interceptions and rushed twice for 13 yards in the Ravens' 20-19 preseason win over the Eagles on Saturday night.

Analysis: Huntley checked into the game to open the second half and immediately helmed a 13-play, 75-yard drive that he capped off with a 10-yard touchdown pass to Tylan Wallace. The veteran remained in the game for one more drive before giving way to Anthony Brown, and as his numbers imply, he certainly did nothing to hurt his presumed standing as the No. 2 quarterback. Huntley will continue to tune up for the regular season when the Ravens face the Commanders on the road Monday night, Aug. 21 in their…read more

Signs contract tender

Huntley signed his restricted free agent tender with the Ravens on Monday, Clifton Brown of the team's official site reports.

Analysis: As a result, the QB is slated to play this season on a one-year deal worth $2.67 million. Over the past two campaigns, the 25-year-old has made nine starts for Baltimore, including one playoff game. Huntley's role in the coming months hinges on how Lamar Jackson's situation plays out, but as things stand, the Ravens hope to have the star signal-caller (who was assigned a $32.4 million non-exclusive franchise tag by the team) available to lead the offense in 2023.

Plans to sign tender soon

Huntley plans to sign his restricted free agent tender Monday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

Analysis: Huntley has been working out at the Ravens' facility and will spend the upcoming weekend in Florida throwing with teammates. He made nine starts the past two seasons, including one playoff game, coming away with three wins and six losses while mostly keeping the team competitive. The Ravens still hope to have Lamar Jackson under center by Week 1, but Huntley seems to be the fallback plan if Jackson doesn't sign a long-term contract or his franchise tag and remains absent into the regular…read more

Set to receive contract tender

The Ravens plan to offer Huntley a contract tender for the 2023 season Wednesday, Jeff Zrebiec of The Athletic reports.

Analysis: Per Tom Pelissero of NFL Network, the Ravens are expected to place the low restricted tender on the quarterback, meaning that the team would have the right to match any offer sheet Huntley signs. However, Baltimore won't receive compensation in the event that the team chooses not to match any offer sheet. That said, the Ravens presumably prefer to retain Huntley in 2023, especially given the unclear status of star signal-caller Lamar Jackson, who was previously assigned a non-exclusive…read more

Comes up short in Cincinnati

Huntley (shoulder/wrist) completed 17 of 29 passes for 226 yards, two touchdowns and one interception in Sunday's 24-17 loss to the Bengals. He added nine carries for 54 yards and lost a crucial fumble as the Ravens fell in the wild-card round.

Analysis: Huntley was intercepted on Baltimore's first possession as the Ravens fell behind 9-0 early. Baltimore responded with a 17-play touchdown drive, on which Huntley showcased his dual-threat skill set. He extended the drive with a two-yard run to convert on 4th-and-1 before eventually throwing a two-yard touchdown pass to J.K. Dobbins. Huntley added a 41-yard touchdown pass to Demarcus Robinson in the third quarter to tie it 17-17, but that tie was broken in the fourth quarter when he had the ball…read more

Playoff starter based on warmups

Huntley (shoulder/wrist) is taking reps with Baltimore's first-team offense in pre-game warmups for Sunday's playoff matchup against the Bengals, Jamison Hensley of ESPN.com reports.

Analysis: Huntley has already been deemed active after sitting out the regular-season finale, and all indications suggest he'll work as the starter while playing through his injuries. Anthony Brown could still be used in a change-of-pace role or if Huntley is unable to keep pushing through at any point.

Active versus Bengals

Huntley (shoulder/wrist) is listed as active for Sunday night's game against the Bengals.

Analysis: Huntley, who was inactive for the Ravens' regular-season finale against the Bengals last weekend as he contended with right shoulder tendinitis along with a wrist issue, approached the contest listed as questionable after practicing fully Friday, but he'll be in uniform Sunday and is expected to draw the start at QB, per Stacey Dales of NFL Network. That said, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network, as well as ESPN's Jamison Hensley, previously noted that Huntley could yield some signal-caller reps in…read more

Trending toward Sunday's start

Ian Rapoport of NFL Network relays via Stacey Dales of NFL Network that Huntley (shoulder/wrist) is expected to start Sunday night's playoff game against the Bengals.

Analysis: Huntley, who sat out last weekend's regular-season finale against the Bengals due to right shoulder tendinitis along with a wrist injury, is officially listed as questionable for the contest, but he's expected to be available for Sunday's 8:15 ET kickoff. That said, while it appears as though Huntley is trending toward drawing the start, Rapoport and ESPN's Jamison Hensley both indicate that Huntley could cede some reps Sunday to Week 18 starter Anthony Brown in the continued absence of Lamar…read more

Expected to share work with Brown

Huntley (shoulder/wrist), who is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Bengals, is on track to play but will likely be sharing snaps at quarterback with Anthony Brown, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

Analysis: After sitting out last week's regular-season finale against the Bengals with right shoulder tendinitis as well as a wrist injury, Huntley said after putting in a full practice Friday that he's about 90 percent healthy heading into the rematch with Cincinnati in the wild-card round. The Ravens still weren't fully comfortable clearing Huntley heading into the weekend and are treating him as a game-time decision leading up to the 8:15 p.m. ET kickoff, even though the expectation is that he'll…read more

Full practice, deemed questionable

Huntley (shoulder) was a full practice participant Friday and is listed as questionable for Sunday's game in Cincinnati.

Analysis: The upgrade to full participation suggests he's on track to play, but Huntley himself said Friday afternoon that he's only 90 percent healthy and anticipates being a game-time decision ahead of the Ravens' 8:15 p.m. ET kickoff. With Lamar Jackson (knee) still not practicing and already ruled out, the team seemingly will only go as far as Huntley (or third-stringer Anthony Brown) can take them this January. The Bengals are heavily favored, though the Ravens put up a decent fight last week in a…read more

Expecting game-time decision

Huntley (shoulder) said he's about 90 percent healthy and will be a game-time decision ahead of Sunday night's matchup with the Bengals, Jamison Hensley of ESPN.com reports.

Analysis: Huntley presumably will be listed as questionable on the final injury report, while Lamar Jackson (knee) figures to be doubtful/out. If Huntley can't go, Anthony Brown will make another start, facing the same Bengals defense that beat up on him last week -- this time with both teams' seasons on the line.

Logs limited practice

Huntley (shoulder/wrist) was officially a limited practice participant Thursday.

Analysis: Huntley, who is dealing with tendinitis in his right (throwing) shoulder, per Jamison Hensley of ESPN.com, was able to resume throwing at Thursday's practice, which bodes well for the signal-caller's chances of being available for Sunday's playoff game against the Bengals. Meanwhile, Lamar Jackson (knee) remained sidelined Thursday and is trending toward being out this weekend. Friday's injury report will add further context to Baltimore's QB situation, but assuming Huntley avoids any setbacks,…read more

Back throwing Thursday

Huntley (shoulder) was seen throwing during individual and team drills during Thursday's practice, Jonas Shaffer of The Baltimore Sun reports.

Analysis: When Huntley went down as a limited participant Wednesday, he didn't throw, so Thursday's development is a positive sign after he was inactive Week 18 in Cincinnati. The Ravens are gearing up to face their AFC North foes again on the road this Sunday in the wild-card round, and Huntley now seems to be on the road to being available for that contest, while Lamar Jackson (knee) again sat out. Thursday's practice report will reveal if Huntley remained limited or upgraded to all activity.

Limited practice Wednesday

Huntley (shoulder/wrist) was a limited participant at practice Wednesday.

Analysis: According to Jamison Hensley of ESPN.com, Huntley -- who is dealing with tendinitis in his right shoulder -- didn't throw during the media-access portion of Wednesday's practice, while fellow quarterback Lamar Jackson (knee) was also sidelined. With Jackson trending toward missing Sunday's wild-card game against the Bengals and Huntley no lock to be ready this weekend, it's possible undrafted rookie Anthony Brown could draw his second straight start for the Ravens in the team's playoff opener.

Not throwing at practice

Huntley (shoulder) is on the field for Wednesday's practice but doesn't appear to be throwing, Jeff Zrebiec of The Athletic reports.

Analysis: Huntley was held out of the Week 18 loss to the Bengals and may be in danger of missing Sunday's rematch with Cincinnati in the wild-card round of the playoffs. Lamar Jackson, meanwhile, is absent from practice for a sixth straight week due to a PCL injury. Anthony Brown and Brett Hundley are Baltimore's healthy options at quarterback.

Inactive against Bengals

Huntley (shoulder) is inactive for Sunday's game in Cincinnati, leaving Anthony Brown as the Ravens' starting quarterback, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

Analysis: Reports throughout the week mostly suggested Huntley was on track to play, but then Saturday he was said to be a true game-time decision and is now officially out for the season finale. Brown, an undrafted rookie, previously got some playing time Week 14 against the Steelers when Huntley left early due to a concussion.

Game-time decision for Sunday

Huntley (shoulder/wrist), who is officially listed as questionable for Sunday's matchup against the Bengals, is viewed as a game-time decision, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

Analysis: Huntley was expected to remain the Ravens' starting quarterback for a fifth straight week while Lamar Jackson (knee) remains sidelined, but a bout with right shoulder tendinitis is threatening Huntley's status for the regular-season finale. Schefter notes that Anthony Brown took all the first-team reps in practice during the week, and the undrafted rookie out of Oregon could end up getting the starting nod if the Ravens aren't confident in Huntley's health as the 1 p.m. ET kickoff approaches.…read more

Questionable for Sunday's game

Huntley (shoulder/wrist) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Bengals after practicing in a limited fashion this week.

Analysis: Meanwhile, Lamar Jackson (knee) has been ruled out for a fifth consecutive contest, while Jamison Hensley of ESPN.com relays that head coach John Harbaugh noted Friday that he expects Huntley to start at quarterback for the Ravens this weekend. Official confirmation of Huntley's availability will arrive prior to the first wave of games Sunday, with the Ravens and Bengals kicking off at 1 p.m. ET.

Trending toward another start

Ravens head coach John Harbaugh said that "there's a good chance" Huntley (shoulder/wrist) will start Sunday's game against the Bengals, Jamison Hensley of ESPN.com.

Analysis: Harbaugh confirmed Friday that Lamar Jackson (knee) has already been ruled out for a fifth straight game this weekend, leaving Huntley as the next man up at quarterback. Though he's started each of the past four games in Jackson's absence, Huntley's Week 18 status is more muddled than usual while he fights through tendinitis in his right shoulder as well as a wrist injury. According to Hensley, Harbaugh said the Ravens opted not to have Huntley do any throwing during the open portions of…read more

Limited in practice again

Huntley (shoulder/wrist) was a limited participant at practice Thursday.

Analysis: Meanwhile, Lamar Jackson (knee) missed practice again and seems to be trending toward a fifth straight absence Sunday against the Bengals. Per Jonas Shaffer of The Baltimore Sun, Huntley didn't appear to throw a pass in individual and team drills during the media-access portion of Thursday's session, which puts the focus on what he's able to do on the field Friday. If neither Jackson nor Huntley are available this weekend, Anthony Brown or practice-squad member Brett Hundley would be the…read more

Limited with two injuries

Huntley was a limited participant in practice Wednesday due to shoulder and wrist injuries, Jonas Shaffer of The Baltimore Sun reports.

Analysis: Despite dealing with a pair of injuries, Huntley is trending toward another start when the Ravens face the Bengals on Sunday, as top quarterback Lamar Jackson (knee) remains absent from practice to open the week. Huntley has now played five weeks in a row, including four starts, without throwing for 200 yards or accounting for more than one touchdown in a given game. The Ravens have won three of their past five games without once scoring more than 17 points in that stretch.

Low volume in narrow loss

Huntley completed 14 of 21 pass attempts for 130 yards, a touchdown and an interception in Sunday's 16-13 loss to the Steelers. He added 24 yards on seven rushing attempts.

Analysis: Huntley had his team in position to win this defensive battle, but he ultimately fell short when he threw an interception on Baltimore's final drive. The 24-year-old primarily targeted Mark Andrews, with 100 of his 130 passing yards going to the star tight end. Lamar Jackson's (knee) status is still uncertain for the regular-season finale against the Bengals in Week 18, so Huntley may be asked to make another start as the Ravens prepare for postseason play.

Starting again with Jackson out

Huntley will start Sunday against the Steelers, as Lamar Jackson (knee) has been ruled out.

Analysis: Jackson has yet to practice since injuring his knee Dec. 4, so it's not surprising that Huntley will make a fourth consecutive start. Baltimore has employed a run-heavy approach in Huntley's previous outings, with the quarterback contributing a passing touchdown and a rushing touchdown while tossing two interceptions. Jackson regaining health in time to face the Bengals in Week 18 is far from guaranteed at this point.

Likely Week 17 starter

Coach John Harbaugh noted Friday that it's a "fair assumption" Huntley will start Sunday night's game against the Steelers, Jamison Hensley of ESPN.com reports.

Analysis: That's not surprising, given that fellow quarterback Lamar Jackson hasn't practiced since injuring his knee on Dec. 4. Huntley thus is trending toward another start, with Friday's final injury report set to add further context with regard to the Ravens' Week 17 QB situation.

Does just enough against Falcons

Huntley completed nine of 17 passes for 115 yards and a touchdown, carried the ball 11 times for 26 rushing yards and ran in a two-point conversion in Saturday's 17-9 win over Atlanta.

Analysis: It was far from a productive game, but the Ravens defense didn't allow the Falcons to score a touchdown at all, so Huntley's second-quarter TD strike to Demarcus Robinson and subsequent two-point conversion wound up being the difference. Baltimore locked up a playoff spot Saturday with the win and a Patriots loss to the Bengals, so while Lamar Jackson (knee) is potentially poised to begin practicing next week, the team may elect to prioritize keeping him healthy for the postseason -- possibly…read more

Cleared for third straight start

Huntley (shoulder) is active for Saturday's game against the Falcons.

Analysis: Huntley was a mid-week addition to the Ravens' injury report due to right shoulder tendinitis, a condition that first surfaced during the preseason. Though the quarterback was a limited participant in Baltimore's final two practices of the week before taking a questionable tag into the weekend, the team never had much concern about Huntley's availability. He'll pick up his third consecutive start with Lamar Jackson (knee) out of the lineup, and with Jackson's status for Week 17 against…read more

Remains in line to start Saturday

Huntley, who is listed as questionable for Saturday's game against the Falcons due to right shoulder tendinitis, remains in line to make his third consecutive start, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

Analysis: Even though Huntley was a limited participant for the Ravens' final two practices of the week, Rapoport relays that the quarterback was able to make all his throws without any major discomfort, clearing the way for the 24-year-old to direct the offense once again this weekend while Lamar Jackson (knee) is sidelined. Fantasy managers planning on deploying Huntley in lineups this week will still want to confirm that he isn't included on the Ravens' inactive list, which will be released 90 minutes…read more

Questionable, but on track to start

Huntley (shoulder) is listed as questionable for Saturday's game against the Falcons but is on track to make his third straight start with Lamar Jackson (knee) ruled out for the contest, Jamison Hensley of ESPN.com reports.

Analysis: Even though Huntley was listed as a limited participant in practices Wednesday and Thursday while battling right shoulder tendinitis, head coach John Harbaugh said he has no concern about the quarterback's ability to complete passes while he tends to an injury to his throwing arm. Per Jonas Shaffer of The Baltimore Sun, Huntley looked to be more actively involved during Thursday's practice than he did Wednesday, even though it didn't translate into any change in how the Ravens listed his level…read more

Set to start Saturday

Ravens head coach John Harbaugh said Huntley (shoulder) is in line to start Saturday's game against the Falcons, Jamison Hensley of ESPN.com reports.

Analysis: Harbaugh said he had no concern about the health of Huntley's right shoulder, while the quarterback himself said "I'm good" after taking part in Thursday's practice. As a result, Huntley is now in line to make his third straight start in place of Lamar Jackson (knee), who is expected to remain sidelined after failing to practice in any fashion this week.

Throws at Thursday's practice

Huntley (right shoulder) -- who was limited at practice Wednesday -- was able to throw during Thursday's session, Jamison Hensley of ESPN.com reports.

Analysis: With Lamar Jackson (knee) still not practicing, Hensley indicates that Huntley is trending toward starting at QB for the Ravens on Saturday against the Falcons. Look for added clarity on that front to arrive once the team's final injury report of the week is posted Thursday.

Added to injury report

Huntley was a limited participant at practice Wednesday due to right shoulder tendinitis.

Analysis: Huntley wasn't listed on the Ravens' initial Week 16 injury report that was released Tuesday, so the fact that he was limited a day later is noteworthy. Meanwhile, Lamar Jackson (knee) didn't practice Wednesday, which sets the stage for Thursday's practice to be pivotal with regard to both quarterbacks' chances of playing Saturday against the Falcons. If Jackson ends up being ruled out for the Week 16 contest and if Huntley is cleared to play, the latter will be in line to make his third…read more

Struggles to move offense

Huntley completed 17 of 30 passes for 138 yards, no touchdowns and one interception in Saturday's 13-3 loss to the Browns. He added six carries for 15 yards.

Analysis: Huntley was unable to get the Baltimore offense moving, as he averaged only 4.6 yards per attempt. He also threw an interception deep in Cleveland's territory early in the third quarter on a drive during which the Ravens would have had the chance to at least tie the game. Huntley typically also produces plenty with his legs, though he was held in check in that regard in Saturday's loss as well. Lamar Jackson (knee) has a chance to return for a Week 16 matchup against Atlanta, which would send…read more

Set to face Cleveland

Huntley is officially listed as active for Saturday's game against the Browns.

Analysis: With Lamar Jackson (knee) having previously been ruled out, Huntley -- who didn't carry an injury designation for the contest after clearing concussion protocol -- is on track to start Saturday, per Jamison Hensley of ESPN.com. That leaves Anthony Brown to serve as the Ravens' No. 2 QB in Week 15, with Jackson's next chance to play arriving next Saturday, when Baltimore hosts Atlanta. Huntley's ability to contribute to his team's ground game gives the dual-threat signal-caller a degree of…read more

Clears concussion protocol

Head coach John Harbaugh confirmed Thursday that Huntley has been removed from the NFL's concussion protocol, Ryan Mink of the Ravens' official site reports.

Analysis: Huntley practiced fully Wednesday, and now that he's cleared concussion protocol, the quarterback is on track to start Saturday's game against the Browns. Per Jamison Hensley of ESPN.com, Harbaugh hasn't officially confirmed the Ravens' starting quarterback for Week 15, but there's little doubt Huntley will get the nod with Lamar Jackson (knee) set to miss a second straight contest.

Practices fully Wednesday

Huntley (concussion) was listed as a full practice participant Wednesday.

Analysis: Meanwhile, Lamar Jackson (knee) was listed as a non-participant for the fifth consecutive practice and tentatively appears to be trending toward missing a second straight game Saturday at Cleveland. If Jackson remains out, Huntley would be in line for another start, though the Ravens haven't yet confirmed that the latter has fully cleared the NFL's five-step concussion protocol. Now that he's returned to full practice participation, Huntley will merely need to receive clearance from an…read more

Deemed limited practice participant

Huntley (concussion) was listed as a limited participant at Tuesday's walk-through practice.

Analysis: Since the Ravens didn't take contact during practice, their first Week 15 report is merely an estimated one, but Huntley's ability to participate in the session in some capacity is nonetheless a positive sign after he exited early and entered the concussion protocol in Sunday's 16-14 win over the Steelers. Huntley remains in the protocol, but if he's able to upgrade to full practice participation by Thursday, he would be in a strong position to start Saturday's game in Cleveland. At the very…read more

Present for practice

Huntley (concussion) was on the field at Tuesday's practice and was seen throwing passes during the portion that was open to the media, Jonas Shaffer of The Baltimore Sun reports.

Analysis: The Ravens won't release their first Week 15 injury report until later Tuesday, but Huntley's presence on the field suggests that he's made progress on some level since exiting Sunday's 16-14 win over the Steelers with a concussion. If Huntley is able to take part in a full-contact practice and gain clearance from an independent neurologist by week's end, he could be on tap for a second straight start Saturday against the Browns. Top quarterback Lamar Jackson (knee), who sat out last week's…read more

Enters concussion protocol

Huntley was placed in the NFL's concussion protocol following his departure from Sunday's 16-14 win over the Steelers, Jamison Hensley of ESPN.com reports.

Analysis: Given that Huntley's early exit was attributed to a concussion, it's hardly surprising that he's entered the league's five-step protocol for head injuries. He'll likely have to advance to full practice participation by Friday and gain clearance from an independent neurologist in order to have a chance at playing Saturday against the Browns. Unless Huntley or Lamar Jackson (knee) quickly recover from their respective injuries, undrafted rookie Anthony Brown could be in line for his first NFL…read more

Won't return to Sunday's game

Huntley (concussion) won't return to Sunday's game against the Steelers.

Analysis: Huntley, who had been filling in for Lamar Jackson (knee), will now look to progress through the NFL's concussion protocol ahead of this coming Saturday's contest against the Browns. His absence will result in Anthony Brown finishing up the Ravens' Week 14 game.

Exits Sunday's game

Huntley (concussion) was replaced by Anthony Brown during Sunday's game against the Steelers, Jamison Hensley of ESPN.com reports.

Analysis: Per the report, Huntley is questionable to return to the contest. Prior to his exit, Huntley -- who was filling in for Lamar Jackson (knee) -- completed eight of 12 passes for 88 yards and ran nine times for 31 yards.

Starting Sunday, maybe Week 15, too

Huntley will start at quarterback in Sunday's game against the Steelers with Lamar Jackson (knee) inactive for the contest.

Analysis: Jackson was listed as doubtful heading into the weekend after failing to practice in any capacity Wednesday through Friday due to a PCL sprain of his left knee, an injury he sustained in last week's game against the Broncos. Huntley came on in relief of Jackson in the 10-9 victory and completed 27 of 32 attempts for 187 yards and an interception while adding 41 yards on 10 carries, one of which went for a game-winning touchdown. According to Adam Schefter of ESPN, league sources believe…read more

On tap for Week 14 start

Huntley is in line to start at quarterback in Sunday's game at Pittsburgh with Lamar Jackson (knee) listed as doubtful for the contest after not practicing all week, Jamison Hensley of ESPN.com reports. "It looks like it's going to be Tyler on Sunday," Ravens head coach John Harbaugh confirmed after Friday's practice.

Analysis: In his first extended action of the season in last week's 10-9 win over the Broncos, Huntley came on in relief for the injured Jackson and completed 27 of his 32 pass attempts for 187 yards and an interception while carrying 10 times for 41 yards and the game-winning score. Though Huntley will be making his first start of the season Sunday, he previously made four starts in place of Jackson during the 2021 season, completing 64.7 percent of his throws for 5.5 yards per attempt, two touchdowns…read more

Trending toward Week 14 start

Ravens head coach John Harbaugh said Friday that "it looks like it's going to be" Huntley starting at quarterback in Sunday's game against the Steelers.

Analysis: Lamar Jackson (knee) hasn't practiced all week and could be ruled out for Sunday's contest following Friday's session, when the Ravens' Week 14 injury report is posted. Even if Jackson ends up being listed as doubtful or questionable for the contest, Huntley is trending toward getting his first start of the season after he came on in relief of Jackson in the Week 13 win over the Broncos.

Trending toward Week 14 start

Huntley may be in line to start Sunday's game at Pittsburgh after Lamar Jackson was diagnosed Tuesday with a PCL sprain in his left knee, Jamison Hensley of ESPN.com reports.

Analysis: Huntley stepped in for Jackson for the final three quarters of this past Sunday's 10-9 win against the Broncos, completing 27 of 32 passes for 187 yards, no touchdowns and one interception while rushing 10 times for 41 yards a touchdown. Since then, head coach John Harbaugh has called Jackson "week-to-week," and now with a firm diagnosis, the quarterback can expect a recovery timetable of 1-to-3 weeks. If Jackson ends up sitting out Week 14, Huntley will earn his fifth start with the Ravens…read more

Leads team to comeback win

Huntley entered Sunday's 10-9 win over the Broncos in relief of the injured Lamar Jackson (knee) at the start of the second quarter and completed 27 of 32 passes for 187 yards with no touchdowns and one interception. He also rushed 10 times for 41 yards and a score.

Analysis: Huntley turned in a solid performance in emergency duty, although as his final yardage tally indicates, he was primarily operating in the short area of the field. However, Huntley came through when needed most, leading a 16-play, 91-yard game-winning drive that he capped off with two key plays, a three-yard run on fourth down with 1:06 remaining and then a game-winning two-yard touchdown rush with 28 seconds left. Adam Schefter of ESPN reports Jackson's injury is "days to weeks" but not thought…read more

Solid in preseason debut

Huntley completed 16 of 18 passes for 109 yards and a touchdown in a 23-10 preseason win over Tennessee on Thursday, adding three carries for 17 yards.

Analysis: Huntley was accurate on short passes and mostly stuck to throws within 10 yards of the line of scrimmage, though he did complete a 22-yarder to TE Isaiah Likely and a 14-yard, jump-ball TD to WR Shemar Bridges. The young QB got the start with Lamar Jackson and nearly every other starter sidelined for the Ravens, and it was a solid showing for Huntley apart from one early misfire on what should have been a long completion. It's still pretty much the same story as last year -- Huntley is mobile,…read more

Gets contract tender for 2022

The Ravens have extended a one-year contract tender to Huntley, Jeff Zrebiec of The Athletic reports.

Analysis: Huntley, who drew four starts in place of Lamar Jackson last season, thus is slated to reprise his role as the Ravens' No. 2 QB in 2022. In seven appearances overall during the 2021 campaign, the 24-year-old completed 122 of his 188 passing attempts for 1,081 yards, three TDs and four picks to go along with 47 carries for 294 yards and a pair of rushing TDs. Though no threat to supplant Jackson, Huntley's ability as a runner bolsters his prospects as a streaming fantasy option when given the…read more

Underwhelms in Week 18 start

Huntley completed 16 of 31 passes for 141 yards with no touchdowns and two interceptions in the Ravens' 16-13 overtime loss to the Steelers on Sunday. He also rushed 12 times for 72 yards and lost a fumble.

Analysis: In what turned into a typical late-season AFC North slugfest, Huntley often was overwhelmed by an aggressive Steelers defense that harassed him most of the afternoon. The second-year signal-caller's two interceptions didn't directly lead to any Pittsburgh points, but his early first-quarter fumble did result in a Chris Boswell field goal. Huntley's second pick also came at the Steelers' six-yard line, damaging enough without it having resulted in any subsequent score. Huntley performed…read more

Draws Week 18 start

Coach John Harbaugh announced Friday that Huntley will start Sunday's regular-season finale against the Steelers.

Analysis: With Lamar Jackson (ankle) not starting the contest, Huntley will get the nod in a game in which the Ravens need to win in order to have any chance of making the playoffs. Huntley thus represents a Week 18 fantasy lineup option, with his ability to gain points via his rushing attempts adding to his viability on that front.

Struggles in return

Huntley completed 20 of 32 pass attempts for 197 yards and one interception while running for 54 yards on six carries against the Rams on Sunday.

Analysis: Huntley wasn't exactly bad and certainly dealt with a lot of pressure (five sacks), but his Sunday showing was at the very least lower than the standard of play he displayed in his prior starts. It's not clear whether Lamar Jackson (ankle) might return for the Ravens' game against Pittsburgh in Week 18, but if he doesn't, Huntley would likely be the favorite to start again.

Gets Week 17 start

Huntley will start Sunday's game against the Rams with Lamar Jackson (ankle) inactive for the contest, Jeff Zrebiec of The Athletic reports.

Analysis: Jackson will sit out a third straight game due to a bone bruise in his right ankle, allowing Huntley to pick up his second start over that stretch and his third overall of the season. Both Jackson and Huntley were sidelined for last week's loss to the Bengals, with Huntley's placement on the reserve/COVID-19 list paving the way for journeyman Josh Johnson to pick up his first start since 2018. After Huntley was reinstated from the list Thursday, he was able to get in a pair of practices to…read more

Returns from COVID list

Baltimore activated Huntley (illness) from the reserve/COVID-19 list Thursday.

Analysis: Huntley missed this past weekend's loss to the Bengals, and with Lamar Jackson (ankle) also out, Josh Johnson was pressed into a spot start. As Sunday's game against the Rams approaches, Jackson is trending in the right direction after logging a limited practice Wednesday. If, however, Jackson doesn't progress as hoped in the coming days, Huntley once again is available to fill in.

Should return Thursday

Ravens head coach John Harbaugh expects Huntley (illness) to return to practice Thursday, Jamison Hensley of ESPN.com reports.

Analysis: Assuming that happens and Huntley is formally reinstated from the reserve/COVID-19 list, he could be primed to make another start, with Lamar Jackson (ankle) back at practice Wednesday but still sporting a limp. While neither Huntley nor Jackson was available fo last week's 41-21 loss to the Bengals, Josh Johnson got the starting nod and mostly kept the offense moving in a game where the defense was bowled over.

Officially on COVID list

Baltimore placed Huntley (illness) on the reserve/COVID-19 list Saturday.

Analysis: With Huntley on the COVID list and Lamar Jackson (ankle) not traveling with the Ravens to Cincinnati for Sunday's game against the Bengals, Josh Johnson is now slated to start to pick up his first start since 2018, when he was a member of Washington. Kenji Bahar has been elevated from the practice squad and will back Johnson up Sunday.

Reportedly tests positive for COVID

Huntley reportedly tested positive for COVID-19 Saturday morning, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

Analysis: Though the Ravens have yet to officially make a transaction confirming that, Jamison Hensley of ESPN.com relayed that Huntley is slated to be placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list. In that context, it looks like Josh Johnson is trending toward starting Sunday's game against the Bengals, while Jeff Zrebiec of The Athletic notes that Lamar Jackson (ankle/questionable) may have to be listed as active for the contest, either way.

Headed to COVID list, per report

Huntley (illness) is reportedly headed to the reserve/COVID-19 in advance of Sunday's game against the Bengals, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

Analysis: Huntley missed Friday's practice practice due to an illness, but he had been expected to start the game. In the event that the move is confirmed, the Ravens' Week 16 options at QB would be down to Lamar Jackson (ankle/questionable), who didn't practice all week, and third-stringer Josh Johnson.

Likely starting despite illness

Huntley (illness) is expected to start Sunday's game in Cincinnati, though both he and Lamar Jackson (ankle) are listed as questionable, Jeff Zrebiec of The Athletic reports.

Analysis: Huntley was added to the injury report Friday afternoon when he missed practice with a non-COVID-19-related illness. He still seems more likely to play than Jackson, who missed every practice for a second straight week. Both quarterbacks may be treated as game-time decisions ahead of Sunday's 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff, with Josh Johnson on hand for the start if Jackson and Huntley aren't ready.

Falls ill, but should start Week 16

Huntley missed Friday's practice with a non-COVID-19-related illness, but the Ravens still are expecting him to start Sunday against the Bengals with Lamar Jackson (ankle) trending toward missing a second straight game, Aditi Kinkhabwala of NFL Network reports.

Analysis: Josh Johnson took reps with the first-team offense Friday, as Huntley was away from the team while Jackson remained a spectator once again. As Kinkhabwala notes, Jackson hasn't taken any on-field reps in the past 12 days since spraining his ankle Dec. 12 against the Browns, making it unlikely the Ravens clear him to play even if he takes a questionable designation into the weekend. Provided Huntley continues to improve in the next couple of days while testing negative for the virus, he should…read more

Accounts for four TDs

Huntley completed 28 of 40 passes for 215 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 31-30 loss to the Packers. He also rushed 13 times for 73 yards and two more scores.

Analysis: Huntley was impressive while starting in place of Lamar Jackson (ankle). The signal-caller leaned on Mark Andrews in the passing game, connecting with the tight end 10 times for 136 yards and two scores, but Huntley also made plays with his legs. In fact, with rushing scores from three and eight yards inside the last five minutes of regulation, Huntley put the Ravens in position to win the game. Although his two-point conversion attempt on a pass to Andrews with 45 seconds left proved…read more

Draws Week 15 start at QB

With Lamar Jackson (ankle) inactive, Huntley is slated to start Sunday's game against the Packers, Jonas Shaffer of The Baltimore Sun reports.

Analysis: Huntley thus represents a direct replacement option for those who held out hope that Jackson might be able to play Sunday, as well as fantasy managers scrambling for QB depth at this stage of Week 15, for any reason. While the 23-year-old Huntley can't match Jackson's upside, he's held his own as a passer when he's been pressed into expanded duty this season, while also chipping in as a rushing option.

Takes over for injured starter

Huntley took over for Lamar Jackson (ankle) on Sunday, completing 27 of 38 pass attempts for 270 yards and a touchdown, adding 45 yards on six rushing attempts in a 24-22 loss to Cleveland.

Analysis: Jackson went down early in the second quarter with an apparent ankle injury and had to be carted off the field. Huntley took over and did his best impression of the star quarterback he replaced, leading the Ravens to a late comeback attempt that fell a two-point conversion away from tying the game. The second-year quarterback already flashed his dual-threat ability this season in a Week 11 spot start for Jackson, when he completed 72 percent of his passes and rushed for 40 yards. We will get a…read more

Headed back to No. 2 role

Huntley is expected to reprise his normal duties as the Ravens' backup quarterback Sunday against the Browns after Lamar Jackson (illness) practiced fully Wednesday, putting him on track to start this weekend, Jamison Hensley of ESPN.com reports.

Analysis: Huntley handled all of the first-team reps in two of the Ravens' three practices last week while Jackson was idle due to a non-COVID-19-related illness, then picked up his first career NFL start in Sunday's 16-13 win over the Bears when Jackson was inactive for the contest. Though he didn't put up stellar numbers, Huntley delivered an acceptable fill-in performance, completing 72.2 percent of his throws for 6.1 yards per attempt while rushing seven times for 40 yards and turning the ball over…read more

Serviceable numbers in comeback win

Huntley completed 26 of 36 passes for 219 yards with no touchdowns and one interception and rushed seven times for 40 yards in the Ravens' 16-13 win over the Bears on Sunday. He also committed a fumble recovered by Baltimore.

Analysis: Filling in for Lamar Jackson (illness), Huntley turned in very solid numbers in his first NFL regular-season start. Huntley also turned in a reasonably good impression of Jackson on the ground, but his biggest contributions came through the air late when he completed 21- and 29-yard passes to Devin Duvernay and Sammy Watkins, respectively, on what would turn out to be Baltimore's game-winning drive. With the source of Jackson's non-COVID malady still a mystery to the Ravens' training staff, it…read more

Game plan won't change in start

The Ravens don't have any plans to dramatically alter their game plan for Sunday's contest against the Bears with Huntley starting in place of Lamar Jackson (illness), Jay Glazer said on the "Fox NFL Sunday" program.

Analysis: Not only did Huntley take most of the reps in practice this week, but the Ravens believe that Huntley has a similar -- albeit lesser -- skill set to Jackson, so their formations and plays won't change much. Over three extended appearances in the preseason, Huntley completed 72.3 percent of his throws for 6.6 yards per attempt and a 4:1 TD:INT while carrying 20 times for 80 yards and two scores.

Filling in for ill Lamar Jackson

Huntley is slated to start Sunday's game against the Bears with Lamar Jackson (illness) inactive for the contest.

Analysis: A second-year player out of Utah, Huntley will be making his first career start after playing only 44 offensive snaps in total between his first one-plus seasons in the NFL. Huntley will be backed up by Trace McSorley, whom he beat out for the No. 2 job in training camp. Huntley is a speculative fantasy lineup option, but he's in consideration for those scrambling for a Week 11 plug-in signal-caller or in season-long leagues with a superflex spot. Huntley possesses some rushing ability, but not…read more

Opens season as primary backup

Huntley will open the season as the primary backup to Lamar Jackson after Trace McSorley was waived Tuesday, Jeff Zrebiec of the Athletic reports.

Analysis: Huntley has reportedly upped his game during training camp, but the Ravens could still be in trouble if Lamar Jackson has to miss an extended period of time, as was the case in doses last season. The 23-year-old Huntley's play style suits the Ravens' offense, so if he is thrust into game action the offense will remain relatively similar.

Shows accuracy against Panthers

Huntley completed 24 of 34 attempts for 187 yards and an interception in Saturday's win over the Panthers. He added seven rushes for 23 yards.

Analysis: Huntley got all the snaps at quarterback with Lamar Jackson resting and Trace McSorley out with a back injury. The Utah product completed 70 percent of his passes but registered a mere 5.5 YPA and did not throw a touchdown. He projects to land the top backup job behind Jackson when camp breaks.

Staying in Baltimore

Huntley signed a reserve/future contract with the Ravens on Monday.

Analysis: After Lamar Jackson suffered a head injury in Saturday's divisional-round playoff game, Huntley stepped in and was a critical component of the team. The quarterback was able to complete six of 13 pass attempts for 60 yards and had three rushes for 32 yards. While the team won't advance to the next round of playoffs, Huntley managed to earn himself another chance with the team. The 2020 undrafted rookie will compete with 2019 fourth-round pick Trace McSorley for slotting at QB for the Ravens.

Relieves Jackson in fourth quarter

Huntley completed six of 13 pass attempts for 60 yards, adding three rushes for 32 yards during Saturday's 17-3 divisional-round loss to the Bills.

Analysis: Huntley was inserted into action after Lamar Jackson suffered a head injury on the final play of the third quarter, providing the undrafted rookie with his third career NFL appearance. It was a daunting situation for Huntley to step into, relieving the reigning MVP in the waning stages of a road playoff game with Robert Griffin (thigh) and Trace McSorley (knee) both unavailable with IR designations. The 22-year-old helped Baltimore pick up five first downs over two full drives of work, but each…read more

Jumps to active roster

The Ravens elevated Huntley to the active roster Friday, Jamison Hensley of ESPN.com reports.

Analysis: Huntley was promoted once again, as Robert Griffin (thigh) and Trace McSorley (knee) remain on injured reserve. The undrafted rookie out of Utah will back up Lamar Jackson in Saturday's AFC divisional-round game against the Bills.

Back to practice squad

Huntley reverted to the Ravens' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's official transaction log.

Analysis: If Robert Griffin (thigh) and Trace McSorley aren't ready for the AFC divisional round, Huntley likely will be elevated from the practice squad again for a matchup against the Bills.

Jumps to active roster

The Ravens elevated Huntley to the active roster Saturday, Jamison Hensley of ESPN.com reports.

Analysis: Robert Griffin (thigh) and Trace McSorley (knee) remain on injured reserve, so Huntley will serve as Lamar Jackson's backup in Sunday's wild-card game against the Titans. Huntley has played 28 snaps on offense this season, completing three of five passes for 15 yards and running 10 times for 23 yards.

Heads back to practice squad

Huntley reverted back to Baltimore's practice squad Monday, per the NFL's official transaction log.

Analysis: Huntley was called up to the active roster in Week 17, and he ended up completing his lone pass for eight yards while rushing for five yards on six carries. He'll finish the season having gone 3-for-5 for 15 yards while also recording 23 rushing yards on 10 attempts.

Called up for Week 17

Huntley was elevated to the Ravens' active roster Saturday, Jeff Zrebiec of the Athletic reports.

Analysis: Huntley is slated to back up fellow quarterback Lamar Jackson on Sunday against the Bengals, as Robert Griffin (thigh) and Trace McSorley (knee) currently remain on injured reserve. Huntley has only played 11 snaps this season, completing two of four passes for seven yards in Week 15 versus the Jaguars.

Active roster stint short-served

Huntley reverted to the Ravens' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's official transaction log.

Analysis: Huntley was active for the Ravens' Week 16 win over the Giants, though he ultimately never saw the field. He completed two of four passes for seven yards while rushing for 18 yards on four carries last Sunday in mop-up duty against the Jaguars. Other than that, Huntley remains without an appearance this season.

Elevates from practice squad

The Ravens elevated Huntley to the active roster Saturday, Jeff Zrebiec of The Athletic reports.

Analysis: Robert Griffin (thigh) will remain on injured reserve, so Huntley will serve as Lamar Jackson's backup for a second straight week. Huntley played 11 snaps in last week's blowout win over the Jaguars. He completed two of four passes for seven yards and rushed four times for 18 yards.

Slides back to practice squad

Huntley reverted to the Ravens' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's official transaction log.

Analysis: The Utah product made a junk-time appearance during the Ravens' 40-14 shellacking of the Jaguars, completing two of four pass attempts for seven yards while adding 18 rushing yards over four carries. With Trace McSorley remaining on injured reserve for the rest of the regular season because of a knee injury, Huntley has a strong chance of receiving another backup activation call Week 16 against the Giants.

Elevated for Sunday's game

The Ravens elevated Huntley to the active roster Saturday, Jonas Shaffer of the Baltimore Sun reports.

Analysis: Huntley will serve as Baltimore's No. 2 quarterback during Sunday's game against the Jaguars. Robert Griffin (thigh) is reportedly aiming to return from IR in Week 16, at which point Huntley could revert to a reserve role.

Reverts to practice squad

Huntley reverted to the Ravens' practice squad Thursday, according to the league's official transactions report.

Analysis: Huntley served as Baltimore's third quarterback for Wednesday's loss to the Steelers, with Lamar Jackson on the COVID-19 list. He came dangerously close to seeing action after Robert Griffin (thigh) was forced out of the contest, but Trace McSorley ultimately finished the divisional game.

Promoted to serve as third QB

Huntley has been elevated from the practice squad for Wednesday's game against the Steelers.

Analysis: Huntley will be the team's No. 3 quarterback behind Robert Griffin and Trace McSorley, while Lamar Jackson is on the reserve/COVID-19 list and thus unavailable to suit up.
