The Browns could be missing a top defensive player when they open against one of the NFL's most potent offenses.
Two-time Pro Bowl cornerback Denzel Ward remained in concussion protocol and missed practice Monday, putting his availability for Sunday's season opener against quarterback Joe Burrow and the Cincinnati Bengals in question.
“Denzel’s in the protocol, so we just got to work through that and see how it goes,” Stefanski said following a one-hour workout. “We know what type of challenge this is. It’s a huge challenge. They’re got great players, really good coaches. We know what you’re getting into.” “We’re encouraged that he will be available for us,” McLeod said."So we’re allowing Denzel to take the time necessary, the doctors to do their job and hoping that he’s there when we need him. When he’s on the field, he’s a weapon for us, somebody who we need come Sunday in order for us to have great success.
