Browns' Denzel Ward: Missing Week 13
Ward (shoulder) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's game against the Rams, Jake Trotter of ESPN.com reports.
Cleveland will be without its top cornerback for the second consecutive game, as Ward continues to nurse a shoulder injury. Ward's stout play has been a big reason why the Browns' defense has been so successful thus far, as they're allowing only 142 passing yards per game, which ranks first in the NFL by over 30 yards. Without Ward, expect Martin Emerson and Mike Ford to see increased opportunities in Cleveland's secondary.

Ward was sidelined for Sunday's loss at Denver due to a shoulder injury, and he's now missing the Browns' first practice of the new week as he nurses that same issue. Unless he's able to get back to practice Thursday or Friday, he'll probably be out again in Week 13 at the Rams.

Browns' Denzel Ward: Doesn't practice Wednesday
Ward didn't participate in Cleveland's practice Wednesday due to a shoulder injury, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.
Ward suffered a shoulder injury during last week's win over the Steelers and could be in danger of missing extended time because of it. If the 2018 first-round pick is unable to play against the Broncos on Sunday, Martin Emerson should start at corner in his place.

Browns' Denzel Ward: Clears injury designation
Ward (neck) was a full participant in practice Thursday.

Browns' Denzel Ward: Dealing with minor neck strain
Ward sustained a minor neck strain during Sunday's win at Baltimore, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports.
It's good news for the Browns and Ward, who presumably has a chance to suit back up in Week 11 after being forced out of Sunday's game early. Cleveland's injury reports over the week will shine some light on his potential availability for the Browns' home divisional clash against the Steelers on Sunday.

Browns' Denzel Ward: Officially out
Ward (neck) will not return to Sunday's matchup with the Ravens, Jeff Zrebiec of The Athletic reports.
On the bright side, Ward cleared concussion protocol. However, his neck injury is severe enough to keep him sidelined for the remainder of the game. As a result, Martin Emerson and Kahlef Hailassie will presumably continue seeing increased workloads.

Browns' Denzel Ward: Questionable to return
Ward is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Ravens due to a neck injury, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.
Although Ward cleared concussion protocol, he is still questionable to return due to a neck injury sustained in the first half of Sunday's game. In his absence, Martin Emerson and Kahlef Hailassie are candidates to fill in at corner opposite Greg Newsome.

Browns' Denzel Ward: Sparks TD drive
Ward had three tackles, two passes defensed and an interception in Sunday's 27-0 win over Arizona in Week 9.
Cleveland had just taken a 3-0 lead when Ward jumped a slant route intended for Marquise Brown and picked off Clayton Tune on the Cardinals' side of the field. Eleven plays later, Deshaun Watson found Amari Cooper for the Browns' first touchdown. It was the second interception in three games for Ward, who limited Brown to four catches (eight targets) and 24 yards.

Browns' Denzel Ward: Gets first pick of season
Ward recorded four solo tackles and an interception in Sunday's 39-38 win at Indianapolis.
Protecting a one-score lead in the middle of the third quarter, Ward was able to diagnose a Michael Pittman flag route and step in front of the pass for his first interception of the 2023 campaign. He figures to see a healthy dose of DK Metcalf (ribs/hip) if the latter is back in action when Cleveland travels to Seattle in Week 8.
