The Story in 60 Seconds

Baltimore Beatdown's film study suggests rookie first-round pick Vega Ioane could become the Baltimore Ravens' long-term center after a strong Week 4 performance. Making his first start at center during Baltimore's win over the Tennessee Titans, Ioane played all 64 offensive snaps and did not allow a single pressure over 34 pass-blocking snaps, even while frequently matching up against Jeffery Simmons.
