On April 2-8, Diego Pavia just landed on an NFL roster after going undrafted. The 24-year-old Vanderbilt quarterback, who finished as the runner-up for the 2025 Heisman trophy, got signed by the Baltimore Ravens as an undrafted free agent. They skipped their rookie minicam invite and locked him in sight unseen. It's a standard three-year deal, making him the second undrafted quarterback the Ravens grabbed on Tuesday, right after Joe Fagnano from Yukon. This move shows Baltimore's betting on Raw talent, even without draft type. Pavia lit up college football with his electric play over the last two seasons. He earned first team All-American honors in SEC offensive player of the year this year. His journey started in junior college, snagging a national title at New Mexico Military Institute, then dominating as conference USA offensive player. Of the year at New Mexico State in 2023, now he's fighting for a spot on the 53-man roster, which won't be easy.

He'll battle veteran backup Tyler Huntley and Fagnano for the number two job behind Lamar Jackson, and most teams only keep two quarterbacks. Still, Pavia's skills could shake things up in camp, giving Ravens fans another intriguing storyline to watch this off season. Football news, powered by AI. This is NFL News Today.
