It was an exciting day at Training Camp Saturday, as fans came out in droves to cheer on the Browns.
Another day, another receiver injury for the Browns. Undrafted rookie Isaiah Weston out of Northern Iowa was carted off midway through practice with a knee injury that appears to be serious.
Weston had his head in his hand on the cart with a distressed look on his face. He underwent imaging tests after practice and was awaiting results. Early word was that they were hoping it was a meniscus injury and not a torn ACL, which would cost him the season, a source told cleveland.com. Weston was having a nice camp and getting extra reps with other receivers injured.
Third-round pick David Bell was placed on the physically unable to perform list at the start of camp with a foot injury, believed to be a small stress fracture, and will likely be out about another week. On the second day of camp, 2021 third-round pick Anthony Schwartz suffered a strained knee and is listed as day-to-day. He’ll be ready for the opener, though. Fourth-year pro Javon Wims is sidelined with an illness.
After Schwartz’s injury, coach Kevin Stefanski said he didn’t think the Browns needed to add another wideout, but they might need to rethink that now.Other than Bell and Schwartz, the following players didn’t practice Saturday: T Jack Conklin , DT Sheldon Day , LB Anthony Walker Jr. , CB Denzel Ward , DE Stephen Weatherly and WR Javon Wims .
* Tight end David Njoku is poised for a big year, especially if Watson plays at least half the season. Watson loves to throw to his tight ends, and Njoku is eager to reward the Browns for making him one of the highest-paid tight ends in the NFL at more than $13.68 million a year. New tight ends coach T.C. McCartney said Njoku wants to play like one of the best in the league as well. .
