# John Breech: Breech reports the Ravens' quarterback chaos and states that if undrafted rookie Joe Fagnano is healthy he will start Thursday against Jacksonville, with Slovis or Reed behind him; he also suggests the Ravens could carry three active QBs. **Claimed:** Nov 3, 2026 **Pundit:** John Breech — https://missedtakes.co/pundits/john-breech **Outlet:** CBS Sports — https://missedtakes.co/outlets/cbs-sports **How it reached us:** published in writing **Original:** https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/ravens-add-starting-qb-kedon-slovis-week-9/ 2 checkable claims — 1 depth chart call and 1 roster spot call — each graded on its own rather than as one all-or-nothing call. It names 3 players and teams, each linked to their own record. 1 of 2 have settled so far, averaging 0 out of 100, against 100 for a naive guess at the same calls. Of the 1 unsettled call enough other pundits have weighed in on, this one lands below the rest of the room. > If Fagnano is healthy enough to play, then he'll be the starter. *(their words, quoted for attribution)* ## The claims - **Kedon Slovis to land on the practice squad** - Kind: Roster Spot Calls · About: Kedon Slovis, Baltimore Ravens - Verdict: scored 0 out of 100, against 100 for a naive guess - **Joe Fagnano to be 1st on the depth chart** - Kind: Depth Chart Calls · About: Joe Fagnano, Baltimore Ravens - Verdict: not settled yet ## Who this take is about - Kedon Slovis — https://missedtakes.co/nfl/players/kedon-slovis - Baltimore Ravens — https://missedtakes.co/nfl/teams/ravens - Joe Fagnano — https://missedtakes.co/nfl/players/joe-fagnano ## What others said about the same people - Albert Breer on Jacoby Brissett: Breer argues the Jaguars should be taken very seriously, seeing a path to 13 wins and the AFC's No. 1 seed with a first-round bye, and he expects the Jacoby Brissett trade to Baltimore to be completed within a day. — https://missedtakes.co/opinions/c51d9762-3ca3-4143-9372-bf508348053f (scored 100) - Nathan Jahnke on Jacoby Brissett: In a Week 9 recap, Jahnke expects Mark Andrews to remain Baltimore's lead tight end but says rookie Matt Hibner is more likely than Josh Cuevas to eventually overtake him, and he anticipates the Ravens acquiring Jacoby Brissett to start at quarterback.
