BEREA, Ohio -- Cleveland Browns cornerback Denzel Ward said Thursday that he did not consider retirement after his fifth stint in the NFL's concussion protocol since entering the league in 2018.
Ward, 27, was sidelined for two weeks after colliding with wide receiver Elijah Moore during a training camp practice. Ward returned to practice on Wednesday and head coach Kevin Stefanski said Thursday that Ward has been cleared from the protocol.
