The Cleveland Browns have officially placed linebacker Jeremiah Owusu-Koramoah on the reserve/physically unable to perform (PUP) list due to a neck injury, per @AdamSchefter.
The move ensures that Owusu-Koramoah will miss at least the first four games of the regular season. Unlike a season-ending designation, players on the reserve/PUP list are eligible to be activated and return to the lineup after the mandatory four-game period, provided they are medically cleared by the team's staff.
Owusu-Koramoah has developed into a focal point of the Browns defense, known for his sideline-to-sideline speed and playmaking ability. The team will now look to its depth at the linebacker position to fill the void while the Pro Bowler rehabilitates his neck injury. No further timeline for his return has been provided at this time.
This is a developing story. Check back for updates.
