For most, the Baltimore Ravens quarterback room is set with Lamar Jackson and Tyler Huntley, but as we know, you can never have enough quarterbacks.
And the Ravens have signed undrafted free agent Diego Pavia to a three-year contract, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter.
That now gives Jesse Minter three quarterbacks in the room, with Pavia set to be the third string and take some scout team reps.
But does it impact Lamar at all? Absolutely not.

Pavia a pure dart throw
Even a player taken in the fifth-round of the NFL Draft is considered a dart throw, and when it comes to an undrafted player, the expectations are low.
Of course, that doesn't mean Pavia can't develop into something in the NFL, just look at Tony Romo.
But Pavia will come to the Ravens looking to settle in and make the final roster as one of three quarterbacks. How the Ravens ease him into the offseason workouts will be interesting, given that Lamar and Huntley will be taking the majority of the reps.
So, Pavia might have to be content with scraps during training camp, but if he can show something tangible in front of the coaching staff, maybe he has a future in the league.
It's all in front of the rookie. Let's see how he handles it.
