Huntley’s value to the Ravens has been cemented over the last two seasons as he’s made eight regular season starts and one postseason start in that span. Lamar Jackson’s return means that Huntley will remain a backup whose fantasy value is tied to Jackson’s availability. Over the last two seasons (13 total appearances), Huntley has completed 65.7 percent of his passes at 5.8 YPA with a 5:7 TD:INT. He’s been effective as a rusher with 431 yards (4.8 YPC) and three rushing scores. Jackson’s durability concerns keep Huntley on the outskirts of the SuperFlex radar but even if he gets a shot to start, he’s shown to be a low-ceiling passer.

Huntley is entrenched as Lamar Jackson’s backup in Baltimore after performing well in Jackson’s stead to end last season. Though he notched just one win in five starts, Huntley showed he was capable of operating the offense and kept the team within striking distance of a victory each time he was asked to enter the game. He completed 66.1 percent of his passes, but that came along with a poor 3:4 TD:INT to go with a 5.9 YPA. Huntley was effective as a rusher, though, with 284 yards and a pair of touchdowns as a starter. Jackson has missed six games over the past two seasons so durability is starting to become a discussion point with him, which makes Huntley valuable in Baltimore. Huntley still needs to develop as a passer before a team entertains the idea of him competing for a starting job in the future, but he’s an important piece in Baltimore as Jackson’s understudy.

Robert Griffin’s departure opens a competition between Huntley and Trace McSorley to be Lamar Jackson’s top backup. Huntley notably saw action in Baltimore’s playoff loss after Jackson went out with a head injury, completing six of 13 passes for 60 yards and showing his mobility with three rushes for 32 yards. McSorley likely would have been the guy in that scenario if not for a knee injury that landed him on IR late in the year. Regardless, Huntley and McSorley project to battle for the No. 2 spot and both could make the team should the Ravens opt to carry three quarterbacks.
