Fagnano will start. Use him only if your superflex needs him.

Joe Fagnano is now a usable emergency option for a superflex team missing a quarterback. Baltimore named him its Thursday starter against Jacksonville, and he was a full participant in Tuesday's practice despite his ankle injury.

That answers the question in yesterday's update. It doesn't turn his first NFL start into a reason to bench a dependable quarterback.

A starter is useful when your alternative is an empty slot

If Lamar Jackson was your QB2 and the remaining options are backups, Fagnano belongs on your waiver list. Securing someone scheduled to play matters more than waiting until Thursday to discover every available starter has gone.

A one-quarterback team has a different decision. Keep the established starter you already trust. You don't need to make the Ravens' emergency your own.

Before claiming him, identify the actual drop. A reserve who never reaches your lineup is a more sensible sacrifice than your last fit running back or the tight end covering next week's absence. In a shallow league, one emergency quarterback is enough; there's no need to collect the whole room.

Don't bank on Huntley coming straight back

Tyler Huntley could potentially go to IR with his toe injury, coach Jesse Minter said Tuesday. That remains a possibility, not a completed transaction. Jackson is also headed to IR with his thumb injury.

For managers holding Huntley, the practical consequence is simple: have another Thursday plan. Don't release a usable alternative on the assumption that Huntley's absence ends after this game. Equally, don't describe Fagnano as the starter for the rest of the season when the club has only settled the next game.

Give the pass-catchers a fresh comparison

For Zay Flowers and Mark Andrews, compare your alternatives before kickoff. If you have a similarly useful player attached to a settled passing game, favour that option. If your bench is thin, keeping the Ravens player is more sensible than chasing an obscure receiver solely to avoid the uncertainty.

Keep Derrick Henry in the starting conversation. A change at quarterback doesn't establish how often Baltimore will reach scoring range or how its drives will finish.

The next checkpoint is Wednesday's final injury report, followed by Thursday's inactive list. Make the emergency claim now if you need it; leave the final lineup choice open until then.
