What happened to Tyler Huntley? Ravens QB heads to locker room with injury
Tyler Huntley, who started in place of injured starter Lamar Jackson, went to the locker room with an injury against the Pittsburgh Steelers. The Baltimore Ravens quarterback was knocked out of the game, having to return straight to the Ravens' locker room. Undrafted free agent quarterback Anthony Brown took over under center for Huntley.
Huntley is an undrafted free agent himself who was signed by the Ravens ahead of the 2020 - 2021 season. Prior to the start of the season, the former University of Utah star played four games for the Ravens in his career. All four of those starts came last season, going 1 - 3 in those starts. He threw for 772 yards, three touchdowns, and four interceptions.
Back to Jackson, he suffered a knee injury in Week 13 versus the Denver Broncos. Head coach John Harbaugh said earlier this week that Jackson's injury is more on a week-to-week basis, rather than season-ending. The 2019 NFL MVP did not practice the week leading up to the game versus the Steelers and is officially listed as doubtful.

This will be the first game that Jackson has missed this season, but Tyler Huntley did see significant work in the Ravens' Week 13 victory. After Jackson left the Broncos game in the first half, Huntley threw for 187 yards with an interception to help the club move to 8-4. He also rushed for 41 yards, scoring the winning touchdown in the fourth quarter of the game.
