Undrafted QB Fagnano Makes NFL Push
28 Aug
Summary
- Joe Fagnano, an undrafted QB, is impressing in the Ravens' preseason.
- He has demonstrated strong performance with touchdowns and minimal turnovers.
- Fagnano is competing for a spot against the established backup QB.
The Baltimore Ravens are hosting the Washington Commanders for their final preseason game on Friday, August 28, 2026. The Ravens have secured two preseason victories thus far against the Philadelphia Eagles and Minnesota Vikings.
Undrafted quarterback Joe Fagnano is emerging as a notable player, vying for a position on the 53-man roster. Fagnano, a former UConn standout, has impressed observers with his efficiency and production during the preseason. In his debut against the Eagles, he threw for a touchdown and completed 22 of 28 passes. He followed this with another strong performance against the Vikings, completing 15 of 20 passes for 123 yards and a touchdown without any turnovers.
Fagnano's performance has placed him under scrutiny as a potential NFL player, even challenging for the backup quarterback role behind starter Lamar Jackson. He was one of two undrafted quarterbacks signed by the Ravens, though the other was later released. The Ravens will commence their regular season on Sunday, September 13, on the road against the Indianapolis Colts.
