Cleveland Browns linebacker Jeremiah Owusu-Koramoah (6) is hauled off on a stretcher during the second half of an NFL football game against the Baltimore Ravens at Huntington Bank Field, Sunday, Oct. 27, 2024, in Cleveland, Ohio.

Browns linebacker and leading tackler Jeremiah Owusu-Koramoah was carted off the field with a neck injury during Cleveland's 29-24 win over the visiting Baltimore Ravens on Sunday.

Owusu-Koramoah, 24, was hurt during the third quarter after colliding with Baltimore running back Derrick Henry. ESPN reported that Owusu-Koramoah was evaluated at a nearby hospital and has movement in all extremities.

Henry's right shoulder barreled into Owusu-Koramoah's head and neck area on a 10-yard run with less than a minute remaining in the third quarter. Owusu-Koramoah immediately went down and stayed on the ground as medical trainers tended to him for several minutes.

He was placed on a backboard and raised a fist to the crowd as he was carted off with the Browns leading 20-17.

Owusu-Koramoah had seven tackles on Sunday before exiting, pushing his team-leading total to 61. The fourth-year veteran out of Notre Dame posted a career-high 101 tackles in 16 games (13 starts) last season and made his first Pro Bowl.

Cleveland also lost cornerback Denzel Ward (concussion) during the third quarter. Ward has now sustained six documented concussions across his seven NFL seasons.

Jameis Winston connected with Cedric Tillman for the game-winning, 38-yard touchdown with 59 seconds left as the Browns (2-6) halted a five-game skid.
