If Jackson Misses Time
Next man up: Tyler Huntley
Tyler Huntley is next on the Ravens depth chart at quarterback. In superflex leagues he's worth a speculative bench spot for Jackson managers; in 1QB leagues he's a waiver add only if Jackson misses time.
Who else it affects
A quarterback change matters most for Mark Andrews and Rashod Bateman, his two most-targeted pass catchers this season.
