Cam Jurgens gets familiar Ravens jersey number after trade from Eagles

Cam Jurgens, the former Philadelphia Eagles center, will wear the No. 64 jersey for the Baltimore Ravens following his trade to the team, as reported by Jeff Zrebiec of The Athletic. The number is significant for Baltimore, as it once belonged to the former Ravens center Tyler Linderbaum. Jurgens is set to join the Ravens' offensive line as they address their centering needs, which were strained by recent injuries forcing rookie Vega Ioane to move from guard to center.

The trade, completed on Wednesday, saw Baltimore obtain Jurgens and a 2027 seventh-round pick while sending the two-time Pro Bowl player, along with a 2027 fifth-round pick and a 2028 second-round selection, to the Eagles. The move provides Baltimore with a more experienced option at the center position, filling a gap created by the injuries that forced Ioane to switch positions.

Baltimore's head coach, Jesse Minter, confirmed that Jurgens is currently in the concussion protocol and is expected to be available for the team's next game against Atlanta. However, Jurgens' first appearance in a Ravens uniform is still to come.
