The Baltimore Ravens are making moves to create depth at quarterback after watching all three of their available quarterbacks get injured in a Week 8 loss to the Buffalo Bills.
"A new QB in Baltimore: The Ravens are signing Kedon Slovis to their 53-man roster off the Packers' practice squad," The Ringer's Tom Pelissero wrote on his official X account on Tuesday. "The options for Thursday night against Jacksonville now include Joe Fagnano, Austin Reed and Slovis, who played in two games last season with Arizona."

Fagnano, who finished the loss to the Bills after Lamar Jackson and Tyler Huntley went down, is questionable with an ankle injury.
"History with Ravens QB coach Israel Wilfork lands Slovis in Baltimore," NFL Network's Mike Garafolo wrote on his official X account on Tuesday.
"The Ravens have signed Kedon Slovis to the 53-man roster," Ravens Reporter Nic Mason wrote on his official X account. "He arrives in Baltimore after being selected off the Green Bay Packers practice squad!"

Slovis, 6-foot-2 and 223 pounds, has had an unusual career arc. He played for Desert Mountain High School in Arizona, where his offensive coordinator was Super Bowl champion, former NFL MVP and Pro Football Hall of Fame quarterback Kurt Warner.

Slovis wound up playing for three different colleges. He threw for 3,502 yards, 30 touchdowns, and 9 interceptions as a true freshman at USC in 2019, then went 5-1 as the Trojans' starter in the pandemic-shortened 2020 season.
He transferred to Pitt for one season, where he struggled with consistency, then finished his career with one more injury-marred season at BYU.
