Browns starting right tackle Jack Conklin will miss the remainder of the 2023 NFL season with a knee injury, Adam Schefter of ESPN reported Monday. Conklin was carted off of the field after playing just 22 snaps in Week 1’s matchup against the Bengals, immediately feared to have suffered a serious injury after getting rolled up on by DE Trey Hendrickson on a pass rush attempt.
The 2x All-Pro just signed a four-year, $60 million extension with the Browns this offseason to keep him with the team through the 2026 season. This was Conklin’s fourth season with the Browns, having originally been selected by the Titans eighth overall in the 2016 NFL Draft.
