Browns Get Encouraging KC Concepcion Injury Update Ahead of Ravens Clash
The Browns received an optimistic update on rookie receiver KC Concepcion ahead of a division clash with the Ravens.
The Cleveland Browns received an encouraging update on their rookie wide receiver KC Concepcion's injury status ahead of their upcoming clash against the Baltimore Ravens. During the Browns' 17-12 loss to the New York Jets on Sunday, Concepcion suffered a severe helmet-to-helmet hit from Jets' safety Minkah Fitzpatrick in the first quarter.
This unfortunate incident left the rookie momentarily motionless before he was escorted to the locker room by medical staff and subsequently ruled out for the remainder of the game. Concepcion has now been placed in the NFL's concussion protocol, with reports suggesting he is progressing well and slated to practice today. Cleveland head coach Todd Monken expressed satisfaction that the injury was not more severe, while quarterback Deshaun Watson conveyed his relief that Concepcion is recovering healthily.
The Browns had drafted Concepcion at No. 24 in the 2026 NFL Draft from Texas A&M and he has contributed 149 yards on 18 receptions in five games. Should Concepcion clear the league's concussion protocol, he will be able to join his team in their next game. Currently, the Browns have Isaiah Bond on the depth chart, who managed three receptions for 74 yards during the recent Jets game.
The Browns' next opponent is their division rival, the Baltimore Ravens, with Cleveland currently holding a 3-2 record in the AFC North.
