The NFL trade deadline is one day away, and the 4-5 Baltimore Ravens have already addressed their most urgent need.
Baltimore acquired quarterback Jacoby Brissett from Arizonaafter injuries to Lamar Jackson and Tyler Huntley depleted the position. Brissett’s arrival gives the Ravens an experienced starter as they attempt to end a four-game losing streak and remain in the AFC playoff race. The quarterback addition does not answer every roster question. Derrick Henry reportedly has been told the Ravens intend to keep him, while the Giants have inquired about fellow running back Justice Hill.
We will track the latest Ravens trade news, rumors, and completed deals on this page through Tuesday’s deadline.
Ravens do not intend to trade Derrick Henry
The Ravens have told Henry they do not intend
to trade him, according to ESPN reporting summarized by Reuters. The update followed speculation that Baltimore’s slide could make the veteran running back available.
Retaining Henry would preserve a central part of the offense as Brissett prepares to take over. The reported decision also indicates that Baltimore is not treating its losing streak as a reason to automatically move its most established players.
Giants inquired about Justice Hill
The Giants have inquired about Hill, according to Adam Schefter’s reporting highlighted in Baltimore’s team-site roundup.
The reported interest gives Ravens fans a specific situation to monitor, but an inquiry is not an agreement. There has been no completed Hill trade established by the reporting cited here. Baltimore would have to weigh his offensive role and the value of any return before deciding.
Ravens finalize Jacoby Brissett trade
Baltimore completed its acquisition of Brissett on Nov. 6. According to Schefter’s reported compensation, the Ravens sent a 2027 fourth-round pick and a 2028 seventh-round pick to Arizona for Brissett and a 2027 fifth-round selection.
Arizona also paid more than half of Brissett’s remaining salary, according to Ian Rapoport’s reporting, which the Ravens cited. Brissett is slated to start against the Chargers on Monday, Nov. 16.
Lamar Jackson’s return hopes influence Ravens’ outlook
Jackson reportedly told teammates he intends to return later this season after suffering a fractured and dislocated right thumb. Rapoport reported a six-to-nine-week absence, leaving uncertainty about when the quarterback could become available.
The possibility provides context for Baltimore’s decision to acquire Brissett. The Ravens need to remain competitive long enough for a potential Jackson return to matter, rather than assuming his injury has ended their season.
Ravens previously acquired Cam Jurgens from Eagles
Baltimore traded for Jurgens on Oct. 7, adding an established center during a season affected by injuries along the offensive line.
The Ravens received Jurgens and a 2027 seventh-round pick. Philadelphia received Baltimore’s 2027 fifth-round pick and a 2028 second-round pick, according to the Eagles’ official transaction record.
Will Ravens make more moves before deadline?
The Brissett acquisition and reported decision to retain Henry show Baltimore is continuing to invest in its chances this season. They do not guarantee another addition or eliminate the possibility of an individual departure.
Hill’s reported outside interest is worth monitoring. Other proposed moves should remain clearly identified as analysis unless supported by reporting that Baltimore has received calls, discussed compensation, or reached an agreement.
When is the NFL trade deadline?
The NFL trade deadline is 4 p.m. ET Tuesday, Nov. 10. Baltimore returns to action against the Chargers on Nov. 16 after its extended break following Thursday Night Football.
