Linebacker Jeremiah Owusu-Koramoah has been placed on the reserve/physically unable to perform list by the Cleveland Browns and will miss the 2025 season because of a neck injury.
Owusu-Koramoah suffered the injury last season during the second half of a game against the Baltimore Ravens on Oct. 27. He took a blow to the head and neck area while assisting on a tackle of Ravens running back Derrick Henry. Owusu-Koramoah was wearing a protective padded guardian cap over his helmet but appeared to be unconscious when he hit the ground.
Owusu-Koramoah was leading the Browns with 61 tackles and having his best season at the time when he was injured.
General manager Andrew Berry said Owusu-Koramoah has made progress toward recovery and that they expect him to be a part of the organization even though he will not be playing this upcoming season. Owusu-Koramoah has been with the team since the start of offseason workouts last month.

“We will not make any predictions on Jeremiah’s football future at this time, but we do note that he’s in good spirits and will continue to take the advice of the world-class medical experts who will continue to guide his progress and recovery,” Berry said in a statement.
Owusu-Koramoah thanked teammates and fans in a statement and said he is focused on his recovery.
“The body may rest, but the calling never sleeps,” he said. “I’ve given my heart to this game. I don’t know what’s next, but I’ll continue trusting my medical team, serving the community, and backing my brothers on the field.”
The Browns drafted UCLA’s Carson Schwesinger in the second round in case Owusu-Koramoah could not return.
Owusu-Koramoah was drafted by the Browns in the second round in 2021 out of Notre Dame. He signed a three-year, $39 million contract extension last August.
He was a Pro Bowl selection in 2023. In 49 games, he has 308 tackles, eight sacks, three interceptions, 17 passes defensed, six forced fumbles and 40 tackles for loss.

Oilers dominate Golden Knights in Game 4 to take 3-1 series lead: Takeaways
EDMONTON — The Edmonton Oilers landed a haymaker early in Game 3 and never let the Vegas Golden Knights off the mat.Adam Henrique scored twice in what was a brutally physical first period, sparking the Oilers to a dominant 3-0 win to take a commanding 3-1 lead in their first-round series. Edmonton controlled the contest throughout, limited Vegas to only 24 shots and pushed the regular season Pacific Division champs to the brink of elimination.AdvertisementOilers goalie Stuart Skinner earned the shutout and his first win of this postseason. His biggest moment came early when the game was still competitive, making a confident stop on Ivan Barbashev, who skated in all alone and tried slipping the puck underneath him. Skinner slammed his pads to the ice and shut the door.Evander Kane added to Edmonton’s lead midway through the second period, streaking […]
Pastův gól byla nádhera, stejně tak Červuse, říkal Rulík. Od sudích už dostal odpověď na stížnosti
Herning (Od našeho zpravodaje) - První třetinu sledoval, jak se tým trápí, pak se ale obhájci rozjeli a v dánském Herningu skolili tým pořadatele šampionátu 7:2.Trenére, jaký to byl zápas?Nebyl jednoduchý. Začátek byl kostrbatý, hráli jsme dvakrát ve dvou dnech. A v tom večerním čase je třeba trochu trpělivosti, aby se do toho hráči dostali. Jde jenom o to, abychom neinkasovali a aby nevzniklo drama, že pustíme soupeře do vedení. To se nám stalo loni s Norskem, kdy jsme prohrávali 1:3. Takový průběh jsme nechtěli. Pomohla nám trenérská výzva, kterou jsme si vzali. Ukázala se úspěšná. Od druhé třetiny jsme si zasloužili vítězství. Protože jsme se zlepšili, zjednodušili jsme hru a byli jsme produktivní.Jednalo se o druhou úspěšnou výzvu kvůli porušení ofsajdu na šampionátu.Je to zásluha videokoučů. Jsou rychlí, pohotoví, hned podezřelé situace projdou. Jsme rádi, že nám to dvakrát vyšlo. Mají monitor, mají tam záběry, můžou si […]
Trent Alexander-Arnold and Liverpool fans: A sensible conversation about booing
Liverpool’s game against Arsenal on Sunday should have been a party — glorious weather, no pressure and a full house at Anfield to salute the new Premier League champions.Instead, the mood was soured by a hostile reception for Trent Alexander-Arnold in his first match since he confirmed he was leaving the club at the end of the season on a free transfer.AdvertisementThere has been a vociferous debate ever since about the rights and wrongs of the reaction. In an effort to cut through the noise, we are offering edited versions of that debate — first, as it played out on our dedicated Liverpool podcast Walk On between Liverpool writers James Pearce and Simon Hughes, and host Tony Evans; and also in the comments section of James’ article on Anfield’s reaction to Alexander-Arnold, published on Monday.Tony Evans: Did you see it […]
Jason Puncheon: ‘You have one chance to be part of history at a club. This is Palace’s’
For three glorious minutes, Jason Puncheon allowed himself to dream of winning the FA Cup for his club, the team he grew up supporting and whose ground was a stone’s throw from his home.His sumptuous volley thumped beyond David de Gea and into the back of the Manchester United net had put Crystal Palace ahead 78 minutes into the 2016 final. The finishing line was within sight. Then Juan Mata’s equaliser and Jesse Lingard’s extra-time winner turned euphoria into despair, dreams into dust.AdvertisementNine years on from that day and Puncheon, now a manager in the Cypriot league, still remains synonymous with the FA Cup for Palace fans. His attention will be drawn away from preparations for life in Cypriot First Division by Wembley again and Saturday’s 2025 final, where Palace confront Manchester City. The Eagles will be trying, once again, […]
Rafaela Pimenta interview: Sexism in football, the game’s ‘hostage’ problem and doing the Haaland deal
Rafaela Pimenta is wearing a beige splint over her left wrist. She tore the ligaments in her fingers and thumb playing, ironically enough, football.“It’s so stupid,” she says, understandably frustrated she cannot do daily tasks such as tying up her hair or typing on her laptop and phone.But what irks her far more is some people’s reaction, even today, when she tells them she is a football agent. As she sat down to see the doctor about her recent hand injury, he asked what she did for work.Advertisement“I’m a football agent,” said Pimenta. The doctor stopped writing. “That’s not possible,” he said.That triggers her.“Why?” she replied.“But you’re a woman?” he said.“He really said this to me!” Pimenta tells The Athletic. “He didn’t mean it badly (but) he was looking at me as if I had fallen from space.“I was so […]
Xabi Alonso made Bayer Leverkusen and the Bundesliga better. That’s some legacy
Before Xabi Alonso and after Xabi Alonso are distinct periods. For Bayer Leverkusen, but perhaps even for German football more broadly.Leverkusen first, because it’s simpler.The magnitude of what Alonso accomplished speaks for itself. Prior to 2024, Leverkusen had never been German champions in their 120-year history, either before the Bundesliga era started or after it began in 1963. To complete an unbeaten domestic double was not just unprecedented for the club, but also a feat unmatched by any team in German football history.AdvertisementAnd Alonso was one game away from winning a European trophy, too, which would have installed him and his players in the sport’s pantheon. Atalanta and Ademola Lookman ultimately put paid to that, but Alonso’s influence remains inarguably profound.In the first instance, because the group of players he inherited were only theoretically capable of what they accomplished. Leverkusen […]
