The Baltimore Ravens have made a splash this offseason by signing superstar running back Derrick Henry in free agency, making their rushing attack one of if not the most feared in the league. While the Ravens lost some key pieces to the open market, they have been able to retain their main playmakers, setting them up for another shot at a Super Bowl run in 2024. However, the team has lost their Pro Bowl quarterback, who ended up signing with their divisional rivals.
Baltimore Ravens Lose Pro Bowl Quarterback
Quarterback Tyler Huntley has signed with the Cleveland Browns, adding more depth to their quarterback room. Cleveland now has Deshaun Watson, Jameis Winston, Dorian Thompson Robinson, and now Huntley. Huntley was selected to his first Pro Bowl back in the 2022-2023 season when he took over for the injured Lamar Jackson in Baltimore.

Tyler Huntley Career
The quarterback only played in five regular-season games in his Pro Bowl year, where he only amounted to 203 passing yards and three touchdowns. Huntley played seven games back in 2021 when Jackson was injured for most of the season, and the quarterback was able to amount to 1,081 passing yards and three touchdowns, his best season of his career so far. He has gone for 1,957 passing yards and eight touchdowns throughout his career and now will have an opportunity to compete for the starting job in Cleveland.
Ravens Fans React
Many Ravens fans do not see the loss of their former quarterback as a meaningful one but are wishing the best for Huntley even though he is signing with their arch-nemesis. Here are some of the reactions on social media to the signing:

Huntley will be in a tough quarterback room to compete for the starting job. Still, it can become a possibility he sees playing time this upcoming season, especially if the Watson allegations continue to haunt the Browns. Do you think Huntley will get any playing time on Cleveland, or will he end up being a second or third-string quarterback in his time with the team?
