The Cleveland Browns will be monitoring running back Pierre Strong Jr. after he sustained an injury that he had evaluated at a nearby hospital during practice Wednesday. Strong was running through a gauntlet drill with the team when he sustained the injury, walking off with trainers inside the practice facility while holding his ribs. A few minutes late, Strong was loaded into an ambulance outside of the facility and transported to University Hospitals for evaluation.
After practice, head coach Kevin Stefanski confirmed it was a rib injury. A short time later, the team provided an update, saying that Strong had left with shortness of breath and, after evaluation at UH, was diagnosed with a rib contusion and discharged. The severity of the rib contusion and whether it will keep Strong out for any amount of time is unknown at this time.
