From the article

The Ravens are 4-4 and still in contention in a competitive AFC North, and with QB1 Lamar Jackson heading to injured reserve with thumb surgery, and QB2 Tyler Huntley dealing with turf toe, they're left with rookie undrafted free agent Joe Fagnano... The Ravens top pursuit is Bears back-up quarterback Tyson Bagent, according to multiple high-ranking NFL personnel execs. They have reached out to Chicago, but are in a desperate position... Multiple league sources told me through the summer that the Bears were rebuffing all overtures for Badgent (who makes $4M this year and $4M next year), who they believe can be a valuable back-up in Ben Johnson's system.

Ravens reportedly inquire about Bagent as QB backup after Jackson and Huntley injuries.

The Baltimore Ravens have reportedly reached out to the Chicago Bears about acquiring Bagent as a backup quarterback option following injuries to Lamar Jackson (thumb surgery) and Tyler Huntley (turf toe). Bagent carries a $4M salary this year and $4M next year. The Bears view him as a valuable backup in Ben Johnson's system and are not under pressure to trade him; one NFL GM told the source that Chicago "doesn't have to trade him" and "they like him," suggesting the Bears will demand significant compensation if they do move him ahead of the November 10 trade deadline.
