Some unfortunately news coming out of the Cleveland Browns organization. Stud rookie defensive lineman, and last draft's No. 1 overall pick, Myles Garrett has been forced into the National Football League's concussion protocol.
This is already the second injury Myles Garrett has been forced to deal with. His first, which happened before the start of the season, forced him to miss the first few games of the season.
The announcement by the team comes as a relative shock, as Garrett didn’t appear to be injured during Sunday’s game against the Tennessee Titans, but he apparently began to feel symptoms of a concussion and was placed in the protocol.
This timing isn't great, as the Browns actually leave for London this week. Given the fact that it is a big no-no to fly with a head injury, it now seems unlikely that the talented rookie will play this week. That is, unless, he takes a plane opposite his teammates to reach our friends over the pond.
As mentioned, Myles Garrett missed the first four games of the season with a high ankle sprain. That was the bad. There has been some insane good, though. He was playing humorously well since his return, with four sacks in three games.
For also Cleveland football related news, on Wednesday, Browns head coach Hue Jackson named rookie DeShone Kizer the starting quarterback for the week. It is the end — or just another new start — to one of the weirder quarterback carousel situations in the entire sport. Now, let's just see how long Jackson allows Kizer to be out there.
