The Browns placed Grant (Achilles) on injured reserve Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

Grant's season thus officially comes to an end after he was diagnosed with a torn left Achilles' tendon following his exit from Tuesday's practice. While the absence of Grant will be felt most in the return game, Jake Trotter of ESPN.com notes that the 29-year-old had been pushing to carve out a slot role during training camp. Demetric Felton should get the first opportunity to replace Grant as the Browns' top option on kickoff and punt returns. Expect Grant to undergo surgery at some point later this month.

Grant will miss the 2022 season after tests confirmed he suffered a torn Achilles' tendon in Tuesday's practice, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

The 29-year-old depth receiver and return specialist reportedly was having a strong training camp before his season-ending injury. With Grant out, there's an opening for Demetric Felton or D'Ernest Johnson (among others) to return kicks and punts for Cleveland.

There are fears that Grant suffered a season-ending torn Achilles during Tuesday's practice, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

EDGE Analysis

The report notes that the Browns are awaiting final word on Grant's injury, but it appears as though the 29-year-old is in for an extended absence. In that scenario, Cleveland's return game would take a major hit, while the depth of the team's wideout corps would also be impacted ahead of Week 1.

Grant (leg) was carted off during Tuesday's camp session, Scott Petrak of the Elyria Chronicle-Telegram reports.

EDGE Analysis

Unfortunate news strikes Tuesday for Cleveland, as Grant was carted off the practice field and was unable to put any weight on his left leg. Recently, the seventh-year return specialist has taken more practice reps at receiver than he's used to, as many of the Browns' pass catchers have missed a portion of training camp attending to injuries. Expect to hear more regarding the severity of Grant's injury within the upcoming days, but from the way this sounds, Cleveland may be without the 29-year-old Week 1 against the Panthers.

Grant has benefited from injuries at wide receiver to get steady reps during drills, Anthony Poisal of the Browns' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Grant's primary role with Cleveland will be as a returner, but he and Michael Woods have showcased skills with the opportunity. Grant is one of the quicker players on the field and can be dangerous in the open field. None of the sidelined wideouts are dealing with significant injuries, so Grant's reps will eventually dry up.

Grant (ankle) agreed to a three-year deal with the Browns on Tuesday that's worth up to $13.8 million, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

EDGE Analysis

Grant missed the final game of 2021 with an ankle issue, but it won't affect his outlook in free agency. Chicago acquired the 29-year-old from Miami in October, and he finished the campaign with 11 catches for 132 yards and two touchdowns to go along with 493 yards on 21 kick returns and 250 yards and one touchdown on 18 punt returns. Grant is likely to see most of his action in the return game for Cleveland, as well.

Grant (ankle) was placed on injured reserve Thursday.

EDGE Analysis

The wide receiver picked up an ankle injury in Week 17 and will now miss the Bears' season finale against the Vikings on Sunday after being placed on IR. Grant will finish the 2021 season with 11 receptions for 132 yards and two touchdowns, both of which came with the Bears after being traded from the Dolphins in October.

Grant (ankle) did not practice Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

The wide receiver popped up on the injury report Wednesday with an ankle injury, missing the Bears' first practice of the week. Grant's status at the team's remaining practices of the week is worth monitoring as the Bears prepare to wrap up their season Sunday against the Vikings.

Grant (concussion) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Giants.

EDGE Analysis

Grant was a full participant in practices Wednesday through Friday, but it wasn't until the release of Friday's injury report that the Bears confirmed the wideout had cleared the NFL's five-step concussion protocol. The head injury prevented Grant from playing Week 16 in Seattle, but now that he's healthy again, he should have a small role in the Bears' offensive game plan as a gadget player and option for slot snaps. He'll also reclaim his usual duties as the Bears' top return man.

Grant (concussion) practiced fully Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

Grant's full participation in practice is certainly an encouraging sign after he missed last week's game due to a concussion he sustained in Week 15 against Minnesota. There hasn't been official confirmation of Grant clearing the NFL's concussion protocol, but Grant certainly has a chance of suiting up Sunday against the Giants and reclaiming his roles as a depth receiver on offense and return man on special teams.
