Jeremiah Owusu-Koramoah looked to have his head snap back on contact
The Cleveland Browns defense continues to deal with injuries as LB Jeremiah Owusu-Koramoah was carted off the field after a big collision with Baltimore Ravens RB Derrick Henry. The Browns star linebacker fell backward and lay in that position following the play with officials and medical personnel attending to him quickly.
The reply was tough to watch as JOK’s head snapped back upon contact.
After a few minutes on the field, with fans chanting “JOK,” the Notre Dame product was loaded onto the cart:
