The Cleveland Browns defense last season had a linebacker problem: most of them became injured.
It was really weird for one club to have so many guys go down at a singular position, but this was the narrative with Cleveland 2022 edition. Jeremiah Owusu-Koramoah (JOK), Jordan Kunaszyk, Jacob Phillips, Sione Takitaki and Anthony Walker all saw the training table plus the IR list.
At season’s end, the lineup became a combination of Tony Fields, Tae Davis, Jermaine Carter, and emergency free agent pickup Reggie Ragland as starters to go along with the only healthy backer Deion Jones.
