The Cleveland Browns announced this Monday the inclusion of linebacker Jeremiah Owusu-Koramoah on the physically unable to perform list, which will keep him out of the 2025 season.
Owusu-Koramoah, 25, had already been placed on injured reserve and missed the final nine games of the 2024 season due to a neck injury sustained after a collision with Baltimore Ravens running back Derrick Henry.
After the incident, Owusu-Koramoah was briefly hospitalized at a Cleveland medical center for further evaluation, but was later discharged.
“Jeremiah has the full support of our team, and we expect him to remain part of the organization even though he will not return to the field this year,” Browns general manager Andrew Berry said.

Selected in the second round of the 2021 draft, Owusu-Koramoah was called to his first Pro Bowl after recording a career-high 101 tackles in the 2023 season.
“Although I won’t be suiting up this season, I’m focused on what I can control: my healing, my mindset, and my faith,” Owusu-Koramoah said in a statement. “The body can rest, but the calling never sleeps. I’ve given my heart to this game. I don’t know what’s next, but I will continue to trust my medical team, serve the community, and support my brothers on the field.”

Last month, the Browns selected UCLA linebacker Carson Schwesinger with the 33rd pick. In addition, this offseason, Cleveland also re-signed linebacker Devin Bush to a one-year contract and signed veteran linebacker Jerome Baker also for one year.
