Tyler Huntley steps in for Lamar Jackson as Ravens face Falcons

Summary

Tyler Huntley is playing quarterback for the Baltimore Ravens against the Atlanta Falcons in Week 5 on Sunday Night Football. Huntley takes over due to an ankle injury to Lamar Jackson, who sustained a rare sprain in the previous week's game against the Tennessee Titans. While Huntley has filled in for Jackson before, his performance will be crucial against a Falcons team looking to capitalize on Jackson's absence. Observers expect a different offensive dynamic as Huntley is not as agile or skilled a passer as Jackson.
