Jeremiah Owusu-Koramoah, linebacker for the Cleveland Browns, has been placed on the reserve/physically unable to perform list for the 2026 NFL season, marking the second consecutive year he will miss the season due to a neck injury. Owusu-Koramoah has not played since October 2024, when he was hospitalized after attempting to tackle Baltimore Ravens running back Derrick Henry. Browns general manager Andrew Berry expressed skepticism about his return during the NFL combine, stating he wasn't 'overly optimistic' about Owusu-Koramoah's prospects for the 2026 season. The 26-year-old linebacker, who was a second-round pick in the 2021 NFL Draft, recorded a career-high 101 tackles in the 2023 season, earning his first Pro Bowl selection. In August 2024, the Browns secured him with a three-year extension worth up to $39 million. Currently, he is pursuing a master's degree in public policy at the Harvard Kennedy School.
