The Baltimore Ravens will open Week 9 of the NFL schedule Thursday night against the Jacksonville Jaguars at M&T Bank Stadium, with both teams taking the national spotlight on Prime Video.
Baltimore enters the matchup with significant quarterback uncertainty. Lamar Jackson is headed to injured reserve following a thumb injury, while Tyler Huntley is out for the remainder of the season with a turf toe injury that will require surgery. Those developments have pushed rookie Joe Fagnano into the starting lineup for Thursday's matchup, creating one of Week 9's most intriguing quarterback storylines.
The Ravens and Jaguars will have the NFL stage to themselves Thursday before the remaining games are divided among CBS, FOX, NBC, NFL Network and ESPN/ABC.

The game will also air locally on WMAR-TV (ABC) in Baltimore and WFOX (FOX) in Jacksonville.
With Fagnano preparing for his first NFL start, Baltimore faces a significant test against a Jacksonville defense that will look to pressure an inexperienced quarterback. How effectively the Ravens protect Fagnano and establish their running game could determine whether they can keep their offense on schedule.
