Browns' Jeremiah Owusu-Koramoah: Suffers leg injury
Rotowire
Owusu-Koramoah sustained a left leg injury late in Sunday's 23-10 loss to Cincinnati and is scheduled for imaging Monday, Mary Kay Cabot of the Cleveland Plain Dealer reports. "I'll be OK," Owusu-Koramoah said. "I'm going to get an MRI {on Monday] and we'll see."
Owusu-Koramoah had initial imaging done after the game, but the Browns plan to do more extensive investigation Monday. The linebacker has dealt with several lower-body injuries this season, including groin and knee injuries. He said the current ailment does not feel as bad as the groin injury.

Browns' Jeremiah Owusu-Koramoah: Misses practice Wednesday
Rotowire
Owusu-Koramoah (knee) was unavailable for Wednesday's practice, Scott Petrak of the Elyria Chronicle-Telegram reports.
Owusu-Koramoah was inactive for the Browns' last contest in Week 8 versus the Bengals while nursing a knee injury he suffered the week prior against Baltimore. The linebacker remains hobbled by the injury now in Week 10 following Cleveland's bye week and can be considered questionable to play in Sunday's game against the Dolphins. If he's unable to go, Jordan Kunaszyk will likely see a slight uptick in usage once again.

Browns' Jeremiah Owusu-Koramoah: Totals seven tackles in Week 4
Rotowire
Owusu-Koramoah generated seven tackles (four solo) and a pass defense during the Browns' 23-20 loss to the Falcons on Sunday.
Owusu-Koramoah was limited in practice this week due to a groin injury that he sustained during the Browns' win over the Steelers in Week 3. However, he didn't have an injury designation ahead of Sunday's matchup and tied for the team lead in tackles. The 2021 second-rounder has racked up 21 tackles (16 solo), a pass defense and a forced fumble over the first four games of the 2022 season.

Browns' Jeremiah Owusu-Koramoah: Expected to play against Ravens
Rotowire
Coach Kevin Stefanski said Monday that he's confident Owusu-Koramoah (ankle) will be able to play Sunday against the Ravens, Nate Ulrich of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.
Owusu-Koramoah recently missed three weeks with a high-ankle sprain, and he aggravated an ankle injury during Sunday's win over the Lions. However, he might not be forced to miss any time due to his current issue. While the Browns will presumably monitor his status in practice this week, Stefanski's update is certainly encouraging.

Browns' Jeremiah Owusu-Koramoah: Likely headed for IR
Rotowire
Owusu-Koramoah (ankle) is expected to land on injured reserve, Nate Ulrich of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.
The report estimates a four- to six-week return for Owusu-Koramoah, the rookie second-round pick that leads Cleveland with 27 tackles, including a half-sack, four passes defensed and a forced fumble.
Owusu-Koramoah sustained a high-ankle sprain in Sunday's loss to the Cardinals, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Owusu-Koramoah played 85 percent of the Browns' defensive snaps and totaled eight tackles (five solo) and one pass defense against Arizona. However, he'll likely be forced to miss several weeks after he was diagnosed with a high-ankle sprain. Mack Wilson will presumably take on a starting role in Owusu-Koramoah's absence.

Browns' Jeremiah Owusu-Koramoah: Released from hospital
Rotowire
Owusu-Koramoah (throat) was released from hospitalization Monday and cleared to travel back to Cleveland, Jake Trotter of ESPN.com reports.
Owusu-Koramoah suffered a throat contusion during Sunday's 47-42 loss to the Chargers, in which he tallied four tackles (three solo) and one forced fumble. He was hospitalized to undergo a medical evaluation, so it's relieving to see Owusu-Koramoah already having been cleared for release. Wednesday's first practice report of the week will reveal more information about his health, if Cleveland's coaching staff doesn't provide a comment before then. If Owusu-Koramoah resumes practicing in full, it will be safe to assume he's on track for Week 6 against the Cardinals.

Rotowire
Owusu-Koramoah totaled four tackles (three solo), two pass deflections and half a sack during Sunday's 26-6 win over the Bears.
The Browns' defense wreaked havoc on the Bears' offensive line and rookie Justin Fields all game long, which allowed Owusu-Koramoah to register his first tally in the sack column. The 21-year-old linebacker will look to build off his strong Week 3 performance against a talented Vikings offense in Week 4.
