Jesse Minter Announced Bad Ravens News After Wave of Injuries in Win Over Cowboys
Rookie first-round pick Vega Ioane is set to move to center after Jovaughn Gwyn and Ethan Pocic suffered long-term injuries, Jesse Minter said.
- Following long-term injuries to Jovaughn Gwyn and Ethan Pocic on Sunday in Brazil, Baltimore Ravens head coach Jesse Minter announced rookie Vega Ioane will prepare to play center.
- The Ravens have now lost four centers this year after Tyler Linderbaum departed to the Las Vegas Raiders in free agency and Danny Pinter suffered a season-ending injury in August.
- Minter described the injuries as "long-term," and while Ioane has played guard this season, he lined up at center for only 17 of his 2,149 snaps at Penn State.
- Baltimore may add veterans to the roster this week, with Minter stating, "We'll figure out the best five guys to put out there for this particular week, as we may add a piece or two obviously."
- With a 2-1 record, Baltimore prepares to face the winless Tennessee Titans in Week 4, relying on quarterback Lamar Jackson to lead the offense despite the ongoing shuffling up front.
