# Vega Ioane

NFL player. Position: **Guard**. Team: **BAL**.

## Quick Facts

- **Position:** G (Interior Offensive Lineman)
- **Team:** BAL (Baltimore Ravens)
- **Draft:** 2026 selection, first-round pick
- **Status:** Offensive line depth concern

## 2026 Outlook

First-round guard selected by the Baltimore Ravens to address interior offensive line depth. However, Ioane suffered an injury during the 2026 offseason that has limited his availability in minicamp and early offseason activities. Injury status critical for Ravens' run-heavy offensive scheme under new OC Declan Doyle. The Ravens are pairing Doyle (30 years old, first-time play-caller) with Lamar Jackson (29 years old) in what is the youngest OC-QB pairing in the NFL. Offensive line health, particularly at guard, directly impacts Jackson's mobility and Derrick Henry's blocking lanes in the run game (per 2026 NFL Preview: The 10 New Coordinators Who Could Shape Upcoming Season).
