The Baltimore Ravens have signed quarterback Malik Cunningham and placed wide receiver Devin Duvernay on injured reserve. Bill Belichick, the Patriots' coach, confirmed that the Patriots attempted to keep Cunningham but the Ravens convinced him with the opportunity to fit in their offense alongside Lamar Jackson. The Ravens plan to keep four quarterbacks on their roster, and Cunningham is seen as a long-term move for next year if they don't re-sign Tyler Huntley. Cunningham, who was signed off the Patriots' practice squad, was praised by Lamar Jackson as a great quarterback. The move has generated buzz and was considered a significant late-season roster raid by the Ravens.
