The Baltimore Ravens will start undrafted rookie quarterback Joe Fagnano against the Jacksonville Jaguars on Thursday Night Football in Week 9 after injuries sidelined Lamar Jackson and Tyler Huntley.
Jackson has been ruled out with a right thumb injury, while Huntley has been placed on season-ending injured reserve with a turf toe injury. Fagnano, who made his NFL debut Sunday against Buffalo, was limited Monday with an ankle injury before practicing fully Tuesday and Wednesday.
