Ravens pursue Bears QB Tyson Bagent after Jackson's thumb injury

Summary

The Baltimore Ravens are seeking a backup quarterback following Lamar Jackson's thumb injury that requires surgery. Reports indicate the Ravens are attempting to trade for Bears QB Tyson Bagent, who played under Ravens offensive coordinator Declan Doyle last season. The Bears, however, are resisting trade offers for Bagent, believing he is a valuable asset. After the injury to back-up Tyler Huntley, the Ravens are considering alternatives if they cannot secure Bagent, with Arizona's Jacoby Brissett being a potential target. The trade deadline is on November 10.
