Key Points:

- Ioane left the game in the first half after taking a helmet to the knee while helping on a short pass play and did not return.
- The injury is a setback for the Ravens' offensive line, which has already lost three centers to long-term injuries this season.
- Ioane, Baltimore's first-round pick and one of the NFL's top rookies, has been a key player, starting at both guard and center with consistent high-level performance.
- The Ravens recently acquired veteran center Cam Jurgens, who started against Cincinnati, with Emery Jones Jr. replacing Ioane after his injury.
