The Baltimore Ravens are set to make first-round pick guard Vega Ioane their starting center for Sunday's game against the Tennessee Titans, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. Schefter reported that it will be Ioane's first NFL start and that Baltimore needs the move after losing several centers from its available group.
Baltimore enters the 2026–27 season matchup at 2-1. Its offense ranks fifth in EPA among 32 NFL teams, while its defense ranks 25th. Tennessee is 0-3, with the league's 28th-ranked offense by EPA and 22nd-ranked defense.
Schefter reported that Tyler Linderbaum left Baltimore in free agency for the Las Vegas Raiders, Danny Pinter sustained a season-ending knee injury, Jovaughn Gwyn has a lower-leg fracture, and Ethan Pocic has a knee injury. The report identifies Ioane as a guard who will move to center for the Titans game.
Our data lists Linderbaum with the Raiders after appearing in one game in 2025–26 and recording one total tackle. Pinter appeared in one game in 2025–26, while Pocic appeared in one game in 2024–25 and recorded one total tackle. Gwyn has no games listed in the data provided.
The Ravens will be facing a Titans defense ranked 22nd in EPA, while Baltimore's fifth-ranked offense has helped produce its 2-1 start. The report says Ioane is set for his first NFL start at center today.
