Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson will not suit up Saturday when the team hosts the Pittsburgh Steelers in the regular season finale.
Ravens head coach John Harbaugh made the announcement Wednesday afternoon. He confirmed that quarterback Tyler Huntley would make the start.
“The quarterback for this game will be Tyler (Huntley), backup will be Josh (Johnson), and that’s what we’re going with,” Harbaugh said.

Huntley has performed well in the past in relief of Jackson. One of the most memorable starts for Huntley was almost upsetting the Cincinnati Bengals in the 2023 wild-card round of the playoffs.
Through four seasons with the Ravens, Huntley has seven touchdowns on 1,181 passing yards in 18 games played. He also three touchdowns on 469 rushing yards.
Baltimore will host the Steelers at 4:30 p.m. Saturday at M&T Bank Stadium.
