Browns CB Martin Emerson Jr. out for season with torn Achilles

BEREA, Ohio -- Cleveland Browns cornerback Martin Emerson Jr. tore an Achilles tendon and will be out for the 2025 season, coach Kevin Stefanski announced Wednesday.

Emerson left Tuesday's practice on a cart after suffering the noncontact left leg injury while covering wide receiver Diontae Johnson on a go route. Emerson attempted to plant his leg at the end of the play but fell to the ground in pain. He immediately took off his helmet and tossed it in frustration. Emerson did not put any weight on his leg as he was helped onto the cart.
