Denzel Ward News
Cleveland Browns cornerback Denzel Ward (head) remains in the league's concussion protocol and is in danger of missing his third straight game in the Week 8 meeting against the Cincinnati Bengals. The Browns struggling defense can ill-afford to be without Ward against a Bengals offense that is really starting to hit their stride after a sluggish start to the season. In last year's win over Cincy, Ward started the game with a 99-yard interception returned for a touchdown in the 41-16 victory. If Ward misses another game, third-round rookie M.J. Emerson Jr. will replace him in the starting lineup for the third straight week. In five games in 2022, Ward has 21 tackles (18 solo) an interception, six passes defensed and a fumble recovery returned for a touchdown.
The Cleveland Browns activated cornerback Denzel Ward (foot) off the Physically Unable to Perform list on Monday, clearing him to begin practicing with the team at training camp. Ward wasn't able to practice with the team to begin camp this summer, but the expectation is that he'll be ready to go for the start of the regular season in Week 1. The two-time Pro Bowler finished his fourth NFL season in 2021 with 43 tackles (34 solo), three interceptions (one returned for a touchdown), 10 passes defensed and half a sack in 15 starts. While Ward isn't really on the radar in IDP fantasy leagues, he's a very important piece of Cleveland's secondary.
Cleveland Browns cornerback Denzel Ward (foot), who is in a protective boot after suffering a foot injury on the final day of mandatory minicamp on June 16, said he'll "be good" for training camp next month, although he was hesitant to say he'd be ready for the start of camp. Ward described his injury as a sore left foot. The 25-year-old was named to his second Pro Bowl in 2021 after he recorded 43 tackles (34 solo), three interceptions (one for a touchdown), 10 passes defensed and half a sack in 15 starts for Cleveland. It led to a five-year, $100.5 million contract extension in April. Ward's foot doesn't have any structural damage, so as long as he doesn't have a setback in training camp, he should be ready for Week 1.
