Ravens Acquire Jacoby Brissett From Cardinals

Baltimore sent Arizona a 2027 fourth-round selection and a 2028 seventh-rounder for Brissett, while also receiving a 2027 fifth-round pick. Arizona agreed to take on more of Brissett’s salary, a factor that may have helped the Cardinals secure the return they wanted.

The move follows Brissett’s demotion after Sunday’s game. Cardinals coach Mike LaFleur has named Gardner Minshew the starter, with Carson Beck as the backup, leaving Brissett in an emergency role before the trade. Arizona is 3-5 and can now give Minshew and Beck the opportunity to play through the rest of the season.

Baltimore, which fell to 4-5 after Thursday night’s loss, is seeking a change at quarterback with Lamar Jackson and Tyler Huntley unavailable for the remainder of the season. Brissett is a veteran on an expiring contract, and he has previously worked with Ravens quarterbacks coach Israel Woolfork, who held the same role in Arizona last season.

The Cardinals and Ravens announced the deal but did not initially disclose the picks. The NFL trade deadline is November 10, and Arizona may continue making moves before then.
