Cleveland Browns linebacker Jeremiah Owusu-Koramoah (6) rests in between plays during the first half of an NFL football game at Huntington Bank Field, Sunday, Oct. 20, 2024, in Cleveland, Ohio.
The Cleveland Browns have placed linebacker Jeremiah Owusu-Koramoah on the reserve/physically unable to perform list for the second consecutive season, meaning he will miss the entire 2026 campaign. The move was made official on Friday.
Owusu-Koramoah was also placed on the reserve/PUP list last May. He has been out of action since October 27, 2024, following a neck injury sustained during a game against the Baltimore Ravens. He was carted off the field after a collision with Ravens running back Derrick Henry, whose shoulder struck the linebacker’s head and neck area during a 10-yard run.
The 26-year-old was hospitalized overnight but released the next day, with movement in all of his extremities. Prior to the injury, he had started all eight games and led the team with 61 tackles, including three sacks and 10 tackles for loss. The Browns had signed him to a three-year extension worth up to $39 million in August 2024.
A second-round pick in the 2021 NFL Draft out of Notre Dame, Owusu-Koramoah earned a Pro Bowl selection in 2023. Over 49 career games (41 starts), he has tallied 308 tackles, 40 tackles for loss, 14 quarterback hits, eight sacks, six forced fumbles, and three interceptions.
