What happened: The Baltimore Ravens will not sell off roster pieces at the trade deadline, opting to keep their group intact. The Minnesota Vikings will turn to Carson Wentz as their starting quarterback for Monday Night Football.

Why it matters: Baltimore sits at 4-5 through nine games in 2026, remaining in the AFC playoff picture as the No. 10 seed despite four consecutive losses. Minnesota holds the second seed in the NFC at 6-1 through seven games, seeking to protect its division standing with Wentz under center.

By the numbers: Wentz has completed 23 of 39 passes (59.0%) for 276 yards and 3 touchdowns in 2026 through 2 games. Minnesota sits at 6-1 through 7 games (seed 2 in the NFC), while Baltimore is 4-5 through 9 games (seed 10 in the AFC, L4 streak).

What to watch: Minnesota prepares for its Monday Night Football matchup with Wentz leading the first-team offense. Baltimore moves past the trade deadline with its current roster as it looks to snap its four-game skid.
