Browns' Myles Garrett leaves practice with ankle injury, reportedly might miss multiple games

Browns' Myles Garrett leaves practice with ankle injury

Myles Garrett's NFL debut may have to be put on hold.

The Browns' rookie defensive end and No. 1 overall pick of this year's draft suffered an ankle injury during Wednesday's practice and was unable to finish the workout.

"He went as long as he could,'' coach Hue Jackson said at his post-practice news conference, via the Cleveland Plain Dealer.

Jackson could not indicate whether Garrett's availability for Sunday's home opener against the Steelers would be affected, though Garrett was listed as limited on the team's injury report.

"We'll see," Jackson added. "I don't want to make medical decisions. I'm not very good at them. We'll see where we are as we move through the week."

Garrett is set to undergo a series of tests on his ankle, but a source close to the situation told the Cleveland Plain Dealer that Garrett may be sidelined for multiple weeks.

Garrett, 21, had previously been hampered by an ankle sprain during his final season at Texas A&M last year and dealt with a minor foot issue in minicamp earlier this summer, but the injuries are not suspected to be related.
