Jalen Ramsey aims to play against Browns despite broken wrist
Pittsburgh Steelers defensive back Jalen Ramsey has confirmed he suffered a broken wrist during the first series of the team’s recent win against the Cincinnati Bengals. Despite the injury, Ramsey expressed his intention to attempt to play in this week’s Thursday Night Football matchup against the Cleveland Browns, noting that his ability to participate will depend on how well he can protect the wrist and maintain his performance level.
Ramsey was a limited participant in recent practices and has transitioned from wearing a sling to a cast on his right wrist. His potential absence, alongside slot cornerback Brandin Echols who is dealing with a concussion, could significantly impact the Steelers' secondary.
On the Cleveland Browns side, starting center Elgton Jenkins has been ruled out for the game due to a concussion. Additionally, right guard Teven Jenkins and wide receiver Tylan Wallace are also expected to miss the matchup. However, the Browns received a boost with cornerback Tyson Campbell returning to full practice participation.
