Johnson suffered a lacerated liver during Wednesday’s practice session. He wound up in a pile of players and somehow suffered the abdominal injury. He will remain in the hospital for at least another night.
The Browns released a statement describing the serious condition that Johnson is in,
Johnson’s career has been ravaged with injuries. It’s a disappointing setback to one of the real bright spots of the summer in Berea.
