“I didn’t ask that and didn’t really want to get into it,” Jacoby Brissett said when asked if the Baltimore Ravens made it clear he would be the starting quarterback for the remainder of the season.
The Baltimore Ravens are moving forward with Jacoby Brissett as their starting quarterback after trading for him last week.
That trade arrived as a potential turning point for Lamar Jackson’s season in Baltimore, following a thumb injury sustained a few weeks ago shortly after Jackson returned from another absence.
With production from other backups failing to meet expectations, the Ravens acquired an experienced veteran who has proven he can deliver under center.

Preparing for an upcoming matchup against the Los Angeles Chargers, Brissett addressed questions regarding his long-term job security with the franchise.
“It’s one of those things where you take it day by day. I’d be a fool to look forward and I’m trying to learn teammates, players, coaches, plays and get ready for a game. The last thing I’m worried about is what happens down the road,” Brissett told Yahoo Sports.
Brissett’s immediate focus remains on securing wins for Baltimore while filling in as the starter, leaving any future decisions entirely out of his hands.
While the Ravens have not officially ruled out a return for Jackson later this year, shutting down their franchise star remains a distinct possibility if the offense maintains stability under Brissett.

Should Brissett continue playing well, the team is expected to stick with him through the remainder of the regular season in pursuit of a playoff berth.
Ahead of his debut in Baltimore, Brissett has been logging extra practice sessions alongside a pair of roster moves involving the team’s kicking game.
