Browns' Injuries Mount: Delpit and Okoronkwo Out for Season
The Cleveland Browns have suffered significant defensive losses as safety Grant Delpit is placed on injured reserve with a groin injury and defensive end Ogbo Okoronkwo could miss the rest of the season with a pectoral injury. Delpit, the team's leading tackler, could potentially return for the playoffs after undergoing surgery. The Browns have faced a series of season-ending injuries this year, including to key players such as running back Nick Chubb and quarterback Deshaun Watson.

Browns' Acquisition of Za'Darius Smith Shakes Up Pass Rushing Game.
The Cleveland Browns' recent acquisition of three-time Pro Bowl edge rusher Za'Darius Smith is not bad news for fellow edge Ogbo Okoronkwo, who will still likely get as many snaps as he would have. The Browns have known all along that they'd acquire a proven third rusher to rotate with Myles Garrett and Okoronkwo, and if it wasn't Smith, it would've been someone else. The player this trade impacts far more than Okoronkwo in the short term is 2022 third-round pick Alex Wright, who will now have to fight and scrap for every rep he gets.
