Browns CB Howard Wilson suffers broken kneecap

It didn’t take long for the Cleveland Browns to suffer their first significant injury of the offseason. On Saturday, the team announced that CB Howard Wilson, the team’s rookie 4th round pick, suffered a broken kneecap during Friday’s opening practice of rookie minicamp:

#Browns HC Hue Jackson said CB Howard Wilson (fractured patella) will miss significant time, hopefully not entire season.

Although it’s optimistic of head coach Hue Jackson to think that Wilson could return this season, it seems unlikely since he wouldn’t have been able to take any valuable reps during minicamp, training camp, etc.
