Professional career
Huntley signed with the Baltimore Ravens as an undrafted free agent on April 30, 2020.[10] He was waived on September 5, 2020, and signed to the team's practice squad the next day.[11][12] He was elevated to the active roster on December 2, December 19, December 26, and January 2, 2021, for the team's week 12, 15, 16, and 17 games against the Pittsburgh Steelers, Jacksonville Jaguars, New York Giants, and Cincinnati Bengals, and reverted to the practice squad after each game.[13][14][15][16] In the fourth quarter against Jacksonville, Huntley stepped in for starter Lamar Jackson and went 2 of 4 for seven yards along with four rushes for 18 rushing yards (which included two kneel downs) as the Ravens won 40–14.[17] Against the Bengals, as the game quickly became a Ravens blowout, he entered the game late in the third quarter.

Huntley led the team on a game winning touchdown drive, scoring with just 22 seconds left in the 4th quarter.[22]
