Browns’ Myles Garrett, Denzel Ward will be fine after having to see trainers during joint practice vs. Eagles

Cleveland Browns defensive end Myles Garrett and cornerback Denzel Ward both left practice for some time on Monday, according to CBS Sports Lead NFL Insider Jonathan Jones. Garrett left around halfway through the joint practice with the Philadelphia Eagles and walked with trainers inside. Around five minutes later, per Jones, Ward headed for the medical tent.

Fortunately, both players will be fine, Jones later reported. Garrett got “nicked” in the back of the leg, per Jones, and went inside as a precautionary measure. 

Garrett, a four-time Pro Bowler and two-time first-team All-Pro, is one of the best players at his position right now. Since being drafted No. 1 overall by the Browns in 2017, he has 263 tackles, 74.5 sacks, 13 forced fumbles, four fumble recoveries, 13 pass deflections and one touchdown. 

Ward was the No. 4 overall pick in 2018  by the Browns and has 239 tackles, 65 pass deflections, 13 interceptions, two forced fumbles, five fumble recoveries and four touchdowns in his NFL career.
