  • Browns' Denzel Ward: Not playing at Baltimore

    Ward (shoulder) is out for Saturday's game against the Ravens, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

    Ward suffered a shoulder injury in Week 17 versus the Dolphins, and now he'll miss his first game of the season in Week 18 because of it. He ends his 2024 campaign with 49 tackles (41 solo) and 19 pass breakups, including two interceptions.

  • Browns' Denzel Ward: Won't return against Miami

    Ward (shoulder) has been ruled out for the rest of Sunday's game against the Dolphins, Chris Easterling of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.

    Ward suffered a right shoulder injury in the first half of Sunday's contest, and it appears severe enough for him to return for the second half. Cameron Mitchell will step into the second outside corner spot opposite Martin Emerson due to Ward's injury.

  • Browns' Denzel Ward: Plays part in two INTs vs. Broncos

    Ward logged three tackles (one solo) and two pass defenses (including an interception) during Monday's 41-32 loss to the Broncos.

    Ward was involved in both of Bo Nix's interceptions Monday. Ward got his hand out in front of a pass intended for Troy Franklin, and the deflected ball found its way into Greg Newsome's hands. Ward then picked off Nix early in the fourth quarter on a deep pass intended for Marvin Mims, which led to a five-yard touchdown pass from Jameis Winston to Nick Chubb nine plays later. Ward didn't log an interception over the Browns' first nine games of the regular season, but since the Week 10 bye he's tallied two interceptions (on four pass defenses) while accumulating 12 tackles (eight solo).

  • Browns' Denzel Ward: Suiting up vs. Steelers

    Ward (ribs, ankle) does not carry an injury designation ahead of Thursday's game versus Pittsburgh, Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN.com reports.

    Ward played through the rib and ankle injuries he suffered in Week 11 at New Orleans, and now it looks like he'll be good to go again for Week 12. He could be assigned to shadow alpha wideout George Pickens on Thursday.

  • Browns' Denzel Ward: Stands out in loss

    Ward recorded four tackles, an interception, a forced fumble, a fumble recovery and an additional pass defensed in Sunday's 35-14 loss to the Saints in Week 11.

    Ward exited the game with a chest injury during the second quarter but returned to the field following halftime. He was the lone Cleveland defender to experience success against the Saints' Taysom Hill, who rushed for 138 yards and three touchdowns, while catching eight of 10 targets for 50 yards. He also threw two passes, one of which picked off by Ward in the first quarter. The cornerback later forced Hill to fumble and recovered the loose ball in the second quarter. The pick was the first of the season for Ward, whose two passes defensed increased his league-leading total among cornerbacks to 16, per Pro Football Focus.

  • Browns' Denzel Ward: Deemed day-to-day

    Head coach Kevin Stefanski said Ward is considered day-to-day after suffering rib and ankle injuries in Sunday's 35-14 loss to the Saints, Kelsey Russo of the Browns' official site reports.

    Ward returned to the game after suffering the pair of injuries but apparently isn't back to 100 percent. With the Browns hosting the Steelers on Thursday in Week 12, Ward could end up being listed as a limited and/or non-participant on multiple practice reports leading up to game day.

  • Browns' Denzel Ward: Returns to Week 11 game

    Ward (chest) has returned to Sunday's game against New Orleans, Dan Labbe of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

    Ward exited in the second quarter and subsequently went to the locker room to be evaluated for a chest injury. However, he's since been able to get back into the game. As such, Ward should continue to log a substantial amount of snaps at cornerback.

  • Browns' Denzel Ward: Exits with chest injury

    Ward (chest) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Saints.

    Ward suffered the injury while recovering a Taysom Hill fumble in the second quarter, and the former left for the locker room after being evaluated by trainers on the sidelines. While Ward is sidelined, Cameron Mitchell will likely come in at the second corner spot opposite Martin Emerson.

  • Browns' Denzel Ward: Good to go vs. Bolts

    Ward no longer has a designation for Sunday's game against the Chargers after clearing concussion protocol.

    Ward suffered the sixth documented concussion of his NFL career during the Browns' Week 8 win over the Ravens. He opened the week with consecutive absences from practice, but he managed to return to practice Friday in a limited capacity. Despite not logging a full practice this week, Ward was able to gain clearance from an independent neurologist and has now exited the five-step protocol. Through the first eight games of the season, Ward has tallied 15 tackles (13 solo) and 13 pass breakups.

  • Browns' Denzel Ward: Questionable for Sunday

    Ward (concussion) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Chargers, Chris Easterling of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.

    Ward upgraded to a limited session Friday after logging back-to-back DNPs to begin the Browns' week of practice, giving himself a chance to suit up Sunday. The Ohio State product must still clear the NFL's five-step concussion protocol in order to play in Week 9. If he's unable to do so, Cameron Mitchell will likely see increased work with the Browns' first-team secondary.
