BEREA, Ohio– The Cleveland Browns got some good news Saturday, with cornerback Kevin Johnson being released from the medical facility and running back Nick Chubb returning to practice.
Johnson suffered a laceration to his liver during Wednesdays practice and will be evaluated on a week-to-week basis to identify when he can rejoin the Browns on the field.
They kind of both dove, and Harrison landed on top of him,” coach Kevin Stefanski said this week. “Really regrettable, unfortunate.”
Johnson, who signed with the Browns on a 1 year offer this offseason, was projected to be the teams beginning nickelback coming into training camp.
Chubb has remained in concussion protocol since Monday, when he was reduced with a horse-collar tackle during practice.
Chubb hurried for 1,494 backyards and 8 goals last season, coming simply 47 yards brief of besting Derrick Henry of the Tennessee Titans for the NFL hurrying title.
