Browns All-Pro Kick Returner Jakeem Grant Has Suffered Achilles Injury

Browns wide receiver and All-Pro kick returner Jakeem Grant has suffered an Achilles injury, confirming the organization’s worst fears about the severity of the injury from Tuesday.

Cleveland placed Grant on injured reserve Wednesday, ending his 2022 season in training camp. NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reported that the 29-year-old had suffered a torn Achilles.

The Browns feared that Grant had sustained a significant injury after he was carted off the field after hurting his left leg during one-on-one drills Tuesday. Rapoport reported that the team believed the 2021 Pro Bowl might’ve torn his Achilles prior to him undergoing additional testing on Wednesday morning.
