BEREA, Ohio — The Cleveland Browns placed linebacker Jeremiah Owusu-Koramoah on injured reserve Saturday because of a neck injury, sidelining him for at least the next four games.
The Browns had already ruled out Owusu-Koramoah for Sunday’s home game against the Los Angeles Chargers after he was briefly hospitalized following a collision with Baltimore Ravens running back Derrick Henry in Week 8.
Owusu-Koramoah leads Cleveland with 61 combined tackles. The Browns will be without their top two inside linebackers, as Jordan Hicks (elbow/triceps) has also been ruled out for the second straight game.

Cleveland also elevated defensive tackle Sam Kamara from the practice squad for Sunday’s game.
