Baltimore Ravens tight end Nick Boyle suffered a season-ending left knee injury in the third quarter of Sunday night's 23-17 loss at New England, coach John Harbaugh said.
After making a 4-yard catch, Boyle took a direct hit on his left leg, causing it to bend inward. The entire Ravens team surrounded Boyle before he was carted off the field.
Boyle is considered one of the top blocking tight ends in the NFL. He entered Sunday's game as Baltimore's sixth-leading receiver.
It was a painful night for Baltimore, which ruled out nose tackle Brandon Williams (ankle) and listed cornerback Terrell Bonds (knee) as doubtful to return.
Williams injured his left ankle early in the game and was initially considered questionable before being downgraded.
The Ravens were already without defensive end Calais Campbell, who was inactive with a calf injury. It ended Campbell's streak of 98 straight starts, which was the second-longest current one for defensive ends.
Without Williams and Campbell, Baltimore allowed 173 yards rushing in the loss. The Ravens had entered Sunday night with the No. 8 run defense, giving up 101.8 yards rushing per game.
