The Cleveland Browns have dealt with injuries all season. Injuries have affected the offense, the defense and special teams.
In Week 8’s win against the rival Ravens, linebacker Jeremiah Owusu-Koramoah went down with a scary neck injury. He was carted off the field and taken to the hospital for further evaluation.
While we’ve heard little regarding updates, he also hasn’t been discussed to come off the injured reserve list either. On Sunday, Browns insider, Mary Kay Cabot gave us perhaps more than we’ve gotten from the team previously.
“Owusu-Koramoah is improving by the week but is still not ready to start practicing. I would be surprised if he makes it back this season given the serious nature of the neck injury,” Cabot said.
She continued that she believes “he’ll resume his career next season” and that he’s due to receive “many more” medical tests before he’s cleared to return to practice.
Owusu-Koramoah was having another Pro Bowl-caliber season before the injury with 61 tackles, three sacks, three pass breakups and one interception.
