It is Saturday, June 18, 2022, and the Cleveland Browns continue to wait for the NFL to decide on quarterback Deshaun Watson‘s suspension.
Though speculation on that dominated the airwaves on Friday evening, the top story of Saturday’s Browns Nation news and notes involves good news.
1. Good News On Denzel Ward
Thursday, when Browns CB Denzel Ward was being treated on the sidelines for an apparent foot/ankle injury, there was concern about a severe injury that could complicate his preparations for the 2022 season.
It turns out that concern is unfounded as X-rays and an MRI done on Friday revealed no significant issue.
According to Camryn Justice, Ward is expected to miss very little if any, time because of it.
Source confirms that #Browns Denzel Ward's MRI revealed "nothing too serious" after he walked off the field with trainers during the last day of minicamp at FirstEnergy Stadium yesterday, pointing at his foot/ankle. I'm told he's not expected to miss much time, if any.

4. Belated Birthday Wishes
