The Baltimore Ravens sure are spending a lot of time and money on quarterbacks not named Lamar Jackson . What are the Ravens planning? In all seriousness, what the Ravens are doing right now is brilliant. After signing former UConn QB Joe Fagnano earlier on Tuesday , the Ravens have then signed Diego Pavia to a three-year contract after inviting him to mini-camp when he went undrafted.

“Ravens are signing former Vanderbilt QB Diego Pavia to a three-year deal, per source. Pavia were supposed to try out this weekend, but the Ravens signed him in advance.”
Pavia was one of college football’s biggest names over the last two seasons. What he did to change the landscape of Vanderbilt football is truly awesome. A lot of people have opinions about his personality off the field, but no one can argue how good a quarterback he was playing in the “armpit” of the SEC.
The Ravens now have Pavia and Fagnano as potential backups for Jackson for the foreseeable future. These two are quarterbacks who can do a great job of emulating Jackson’s style of play. Pavia and Fagnano are capable of running the same offense. Both proved last year that they can run the ball, but Pavia did it on much more of a national stage in the SEC, compared to UConn ’s weaker schedule. Fagnano also spent seven years playing collegiate football, so there is a ton of experience there.
With Tyler Huntley still on the Ravens, there are now four QBs in the room. With the Ravens signing Pavia to a three-year contract, it gives the indication that he is going to have a great chance to be on the roster next season, whether they carry two or three on game day. Pavia could be the emergency QB every week. Lots of time between now and then.
