The Ravens took the lead back on their first series of the second half Thursday night, but they lost rookie guard Alex Lewis to an injury.

Trainers appeared to be working on either the ankle or leg of Lewis after Joe Flacco’s touchdown pass to backup tight end Darren Waller. Lewis went down after Browns nose tackle Danny Shelton hit his leg while lunging towards Flacco.

The NFL Network broadcast said trainers put a vacuum splint on Lewis’ right ankle and took him for X-rays. The Ravens later announced that his ankle is not broken but Lewis is out for the game.

The game was stopped for several minutes, and Lewis was carted off the field. The Ravens were already starting their sixth different offensive line combination in nine games this season.

The touchdown and subsequent extra point made it 13-7, Ravens. The Browns went to veteran quarterback Josh McCown on their next possession, and he threw an interception after Terrell Suggs hit McCown’s hand while delivering a third-down throw.
