Ravens Final Grades: The Quarterbacks

Baltimore had injures and COVID issues at quarterback.

OWINGS MILLS, Md. — Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson was limited to 12 games because of an illness and a bone bruise in his ankle.

Backup Tyler Huntley also missed a game because of COVID issues.

As a result, it was an inconsistent season for the Ravens' quarterbacks.

Here's a look at their performance and final grade. 

Lamar Jackson

Jackson was limited to 12 games because of an illness and an ankle injury. He completed 246 of 382 passes for 2,882 yards and 16 touchdowns and 13 interceptions. He was also sacked a career-high 38 times and often held the ball too long behind a struggling offensive line. However, the Ravens only won one game when Jackson was not the starter. Grade: B

---

Tyler Huntley

Huntley finished 1-3 as a starter. Over seven games, Huntley threw for 1,081 yards with three touchdowns and four interceptions for a 76.6 rating. Huntley is now an exclusive-rights free agent, which means the Ravens have to tender him a contract to keep him. They'll likely offer Huntley a deal and move forward with him as Jackson's main backup. Grade: C

---

Josh Johnson

Johnson made his first start in three years in a 41-21 loss to the Bengals in Week 16 with Lamar Jackson (ankle) and Tyler Huntley (COVID-19) both sidelined. Johnson was 28 of 40 for 305 yards with two touchdowns and an interception. He effectively ran the Ravens offense under tough circumstances. Grade: C+

Trace McSorley

The Arizona Cardinals signed McSorley off the Ravens’ practice squad.  McSorley was selected by the Ravens in the sixth round of the 2019 NFL Draft. In three career games, McSorley completed 3-of-10 passes for 90 yards and a touchdown. Tyler Huntley outplayed McSorley throughout the offseason and was named as the primary backup to Lamar Jackson. Grade: Incomplete
