Cleveland Browns rookie linebacker Jeremiah Owusu-Koramoah says heart 'is 100% healthy'

BEREA, Ohio - Cleveland Browns rookie linebacker Jeremiah Owusu-Koramoah said Friday that his heart "is 100% healthy" following concerns about it heading into the draft that potentially caused him to fall to the second round.

The former Notre Dame All-American had been projected to go in the first round leading up to the draft. But he wasn't selected until the Browns traded up in the second round to take him with the No. 52 pick. ESPN's Adam Schefter first reported that concerns about Owusu-Koramoah surfaced late in the process after medical tests determined he might have a heart issue.
