The Baltimore Ravens are evaluating their options at center after losing Jovaughn Gwyn and Ethan Pocic to long-term injuries during Sunday's game against the Dallas Cowboys in Rio de Janeiro. Danny Pinter had already suffered a season-ending knee injury in August, leaving rookie first-round guard Vega Ioane to finish the game at center. Head Coach Jesse Minter confirmed that Ioane will prepare to potentially remain at the position as Baltimore considers roster adjustments.

Writer Ryan Mink outlines multiple pathways to address the shortage, including keeping Ioane at center and signing a veteran guard such as Kevin Zeitler or Shaq Mason. Alternatively, Baltimore could target free-agent centers like James Daniels and Graham Glasgow, sign players from rival practice squads, or pursue potential trade targets such as Garrett Bradbury, Juice Scruggs, or Jake Andrews.
