Story summary

The Baltimore Ravens are acquiring veteran quarterback Jacoby Brissett from the Arizona Cardinals due to injuries to their starting quarterback Lamar Jackson and backup Tyler Huntley. Brissett, who started all eight games for the Cardinals before being benched in favor of Gardner Minshew II after a comeback victory against the Dallas Cowboys, will likely make his Ravens debut when they play the Los Angeles Chargers on "Monday Night Football" in Week 10 if the trade is finalized by then. The undrafted rookie Joe Fagnano will start for the Ravens against the Jacksonville Jaguars on Thursday night. Jackson needs surgery on his right thumb and Huntley reportedly will miss the rest of the season, leaving Brissett as their new primary quarterback.

Why this leaning score

That is an answer rather than a gap: a match report or a rescue can be warmly or critically written without being left or right, and scoring it anyway is how approval of a subject gets recorded as a political position.
