Read Time:1 Minute, 4 Second
Cleveland Browns linebacker Jeremiah Owusu-Koramoah was carted off the field after suffering a neck injury in a collision with Ravens running back Derrick Henry in the third quarter of Sunday’s AFC North matchup.
Owusu-Koramoah, who wears a soft Guardian Cap to help absorb such contact, was quickly tended to before being placed on a backboard and carted off the field. He was later ruled out with a neck injury and taken to a local hospital but does have movement in all of his extremities. The 6-foot-2, 247-pound Henry was not hurt on the play.
Fans in Huntington Bank Stadium in Cleveland let out “JOK” chants as their 24-year-old defensive leader went back to the locker room holding a hand up to the crowd. He had a team-high seven tackles with three tackles for loss before the injury.
Between Owusu-Koramoah and cornerback Denzel Ward, who was ruled out with a head injury in the first half, Cleveland is without two of its best defensive players. Ward has already suffered five concussions in his career, most recently during training camp this summer.
