Rapp Returns to Broncos Practice Squad | NFL News

0:00On September 7th, alright, so the Ravens are dealing with some changes at the center position heading into week one. They had a competition going with Danny Pinter, Jovon Gwynn, and Ethan Possick. Pinter was looking good, getting a lot of first team reps, but then he went down with a season ending knee injury during practice. That opened the door for Gwynn. Now, Jesse Mentor, one of the coaches, confirmed that Jovon Gwynn is going to be the guy starting at center for their first game against the Colts. This is actually Gwynn's first NFL start, so it's a big moment for him. It's not necessarily a permanent thing for the whole season though. Ethan Possick is still working his way back from an Achilles injury he had last December. He was clear back in July, but that kind of recovery usually takes a good 9-12 months, so he's still getting up to speed. Fans are definitely talking about this. Some are a little nervous about Gwynn facing a tough defensive lineman like the Forest Buckner in his debut, while others are feeling confident saying, he's fluid and compliments Lamar Jackson's game well. It's a big test right out of the gate.

1:01So, for now, it's Gwynn stepping in to fill that crucial spot. We'll have to see how he handles the pressure and how the offensive line gels with him leading the charge. I'm Cory with the story, and you've been listening to NFL News today, AI-powered football coverage.
