What happened: The Baltimore Ravens opened their matchup by splitting quarterback Joe Fagnano out wide and snapping the ball directly to running back Derrick Henry. The formation put Henry in the backfield to handle the opening snap directly.

Why it matters: Baltimore adjusted its offensive scheme after quarterback injuries thinned the depth chart. With Lamar Jackson and Tyler Huntley sidelined, the Ravens turned to Fagnano while leaning on Henry to carry the offensive workload.

What to watch: Watch how Baltimore manages Fagnano's snaps and whether Henry continues to take direct snaps out of heavy packages.
