The Ravens acquired quarterback Jacoby Brissett in a trade with the Arizona Cardinals on Friday, however, and the veteran signal-caller is expected to serve as Baltimore's starter with both Jackson and backup Tyler Huntley currently on injured reserve.

Henry also racked up eight total touchdowns in Baltimore's first five games of the year but has scored just once over the last four contests.
