Baltimore Ravens center Jovaughn Gwyn is expected to miss significant time after fracturing his fibula in the club’s Week 3 victory, while the Green Bay Packers are adding veteran guard Kevin Zeitler on a one-year contract.
Key takeaways
- Gwyn sustained a fractured fibula during Baltimore’s Week 3 win.
- The Ravens lineman is likely to undergo surgery.
- His expected absence could range from two to three months.
- Green Bay has agreed to a one-year deal with 36-year-old guard Kevin Zeitler.
- Zeitler started 16 games for the Tennessee Titans in 2025.
Ravens face lengthy absence at center
Gwyn’s fibula injury is expected to require an operation, creating a potentially extended vacancy on Baltimore’s interior offensive line. The early projection has him sidelined for roughly two to three months after he was hurt in the Week 3 win.
The timetable would keep Gwyn out for a substantial portion of the regular season, leaving the Ravens to manage their center depth while he begins recovery and rehabilitation.
Packers bring in experienced guard
Zeitler heads to Green Bay for his 15th NFL season after making 16 starts with Tennessee in 2025. The one-year agreement gives the Packers an accomplished interior lineman with extensive starting experience.
The 36-year-old has played for six NFL franchises and will join a seventh in Green Bay. He earned Pro Bowl recognition with Baltimore in 2023 and now adds another veteran option to the Packers’ offensive line.
