Baltimore Ravens starting center Jovaughn Gwyn sustained a fractured fibula in the team’s win over Dallas and is expected to miss two to three months, ESPN reported on Wednesday.
The Ravens also lost center Ethan Pocic in the 34-31 victory over the Cowboys in Rio de Janeiro due to a long-term knee injury, per reports.
Baltimore already was without center Danny Pinter, expected to be the opening-week starter, to a season-ending knee injury in training camp.
