Yahoo Sports NFL on Tyson Bagent
From the article
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.
STACKED’s take
Ravens pursuing Bagent trade after Jackson and Huntley injuries; Bears resisting offers.
The source reports that the Baltimore Ravens, who lost Lamar Jackson to injured reserve (thumb surgery) and Tyler Huntley to turf toe, have reached out to the Chicago Bears about acquiring backup quarterback Tyson Bagent. The Ravens are 4-4 and in contention in the AFC North but are in a desperate position with only rookie undrafted free agent Joe Fagnano available; Fagnano completed 10 of 21 passes for 91 yards, 1 interception, and a 40.0 passer rating in their loss. The source notes the Bears believe Bagent can be a valuable backup in Ben Johnson's system and are rebuffing trade overtures, with one NFL GM stating "Chicago doesn't have to trade him. They like him." Bagent makes $4M this year and $4M next year.
