The Facts: The Browns confirmed Grant suffered a torn Achilles tendon Tuesday. “I really feel awful for Jakeem,” HC Kevin Stefanski said in a statement. “We’ve witnessed how hard the young man has worked since he got to our team. We all realize injuries are part of our game, but that doesn’t make it any easier to accept, especially for someone who works as hard and carries himself like Jakeem.”
Diehards Line:Grant was carted off with the injury during Tuesday’s practice, and he will miss the 2022 season. He signed a three-year contract with the Browns as a free agent this offseason. He was a Pro Bowler as a returner last season and was voted a second-team All-Pro in that role in each of the past two seasons. BEarlier this week, Browns special teams coordinator Mike Priefer said he thought Grant would "transform" Cleveland's return game. If Grant is out, the Browns will likely turn to Demetric Felton to return punts and kicks for them.
