The Browns on Friday announced that LB Jeremiah Owusu-Koramoah has landed on the reserve/physically unable to perform list. That means he's out for the entire 2026 season. JOK is still trying to work back from a neck injury he suffered in Week 8 of 2024. He also spent 2025 on the reserve/PUP list.

The Browns announced Monday that they're placing LB Jeremiah Owusu-Koramoah on the Reserve/PUP list. When that happens ahead of training camp, it means the player will miss the entire season. JOK sustained a neck injury in the Week 8 win over the Ravens last season and missed the rest of the year.

The Browns on Saturday placed LB Jeremiah Owusu-Koramoah on IR with the neck injury that removed him from the Week 8 win over Baltimore. Owusu-Koramoah will be out at least through Week 13.

Browns LB Jeremiah Owusu-Koramoah left the field on a spine board Sunday after suffering an apparent neck injury in the win over the Ravens.

Browns LB Anthony Walker left Sunday's win over the Steelers with a hamstring injury. We'll watch for more on his outlook this week, but he seems like a solid bet to miss at least a game. If Walker does sit out Week 12, we'd likely to looking at close to full playing time for LB Jeremiah Owusu-Koramoah. He'll be worth a waiver-wire look ahead of a Week 12 clash with the Broncos.

Browns LB Jeremiah Owusu-Koramoah put in full practices all week and is off the final injury report for Sunday's game against the Bills. He missed the past 2 games with a knee injury but intimated this week that he felt ready to return last week against the Dolphins. LB playing time has varied in Cleveland this season, so it's tough to know who will stay on the field most among JOK, Sione Takitaki and Deion Jones. There's decent tackle upside to any, but the Buffalo matchup has been negative for LB scoring overall. That plus the playing-time uncertainty should have you leaning elsewhere in many close IDP lineup decisions.

Browns LB Jeremiah Owusu-Koramoah has been cleared to play Sunday against the Falcons and carries no injury designation into the game. He left last Thursday's win over the Steelers early with a groin injury but progressed to limited practices the past 2 days. There's likely some added risk of re-injury vs. usual, but the absence of a questionable tag leaves us willing to play him. JOK has moved up our Week 4 LB rankings.

ESPN's Jeremy Fowler reports that the Browns don't expect LB Jeremiah Owusu-Koramoah's groin injury from Thursday night to be a long-term issue. The team will monitor his progress in the coming week to see if the 2nd-year player will miss further game time.

Browns LB Jeremiah Owusu-Koramoah left in the 3rd quarter of Thursday night's game against the Steelers with a quad injury. He's questionable to return. JOK could be seen trying to work out the issue on the sideline initially, but he then left for the locker room.

The Browns have activated LB Jeremiah Owusu-Koramoah off IR, where he missed the past 3 games with a high-ankle sprain. He's been added to the injury report as questionable for Sunday's game against the Patriots. The fact that they activated him indicates the rookie will play, but we'd be hesitant to use him in IDP lineups in the 1st game back. JOK had elevated to tops among Cleveland LBs in playing time before his injury. We'll be curious to see whether/how soon he pushes Malcolm Smith aside and/or passes Anthony Walker.

Browns CB Denzel Ward left Sunday's loss to the Chargers with a neck injury. We'll see about his availability for next Sunday's home date with the Cardinals. Avoiding Ward would enhance the matchup for WR DeAndre Hopkins. Cleveland rookie LB Jeremiah Owusu-Koramoah also suffered a throat contusion against the Chargers and went to a local hospital after the game. We'll see about his status, coming off a season-high 91% playing time.

Browns LB Jeremiah Owusu-Koramoah missed Sunday night's preseason finale because of a "freak" weightlifting accident that left him with a gash in his forehead, according to Cleveland.com's Mary Kay Cabot. The rookie needed stitches, then missed the rest of the practice week and the exhibition because he couldn't wear a helmet over the injury. Cabot believes JOK still has a shot at starting the regular-season opener against the Chiefs because of the athletic ability he has showed in camp and preseason. We have yet to see Owusu-Koramoah work in that role yet, though. For now, he's a late stash in deeper IDP drafts, with big upside.
