BEREA: Browns starting free safety Jordan Poyer remained hospitalized for observation Monday after suffering a lacerated kidney that could end his season.
“Obviously a kidney is a serious thing,” coach Hue Jackson said Monday. “I hope we can [get Poyer back this season], but if we don’t, I do understand that too because that’s something that’s very serious.”
Jackson said he exchanged texts with Poyer and hoped he’d be released from the hospital soon.
“He wants to be back with his teammates, battling with those guys,” Jackson said. “Like most of our players do, they feel like when they’re not around these guys like they’re letting them down.
