Pavia Signs with Ravens, Eyes Depth Chart

0:00It's April 28th, NFL news today starts now, AI-powered and game ready. I'm Cory with the story. Diego Pavia just locked in with the Baltimore Ravens on a three-year deal as an undrafted free agent. What started as a rookie minicam invite turned into a full contract, skipping the tri-out phase altogether. The Ravens also signed another undrafted quarterback, Joe Fagnano from Yukon, to the same three-year pact earlier this week. Pavia, a 24-year-old standout, finished second in the 2025 Heisman race behind Fernando Mendoza, who's now with the Raiders. He made waves online calling out the award-voters for overlooking him. Over two seasons starting at Vanderbilt, Pavia powered the Commodores to a 10-in-3 record, their first double-digit win season ever. He topped the SEC in completion percentage at 70.6 percent, 29 passing touchdowns, and a passer rating of 170. Before, on the ground, he added 862 rushing yards in 10 more scores.

1:02Now he's sliding into the Ravens quarterback room behind Starter, Lamar Jackson, and back up Tyler Huntley, with Fagnano right there too. Under new head coach Jesse Mentor, the teams in voluntary offseason workouts, building toward rookie minicam from Friday May 1 through Sunday. May 3. Pavia's got real shot to climb that depth chart in Baltimore. Watch how this dual-threat talent shakes things up. Come training camp.
