Mary Kay Cabot of the Cleveland Plain Dealer reports that the Browns fear WR Corey Coleman suffered another broken hand during Sunday’s loss to the Ravens.

Coleman left during the fourth quarter after he collided with Ravens CB Marlon Humphrey and he was taken to the locker room for x-rays.

This kind of injury could lead to the browns placing Coleman on injured reserve, considering that he’ll likely be out over a month if tests confirm he has a broken hand.

Last year, Coleman suffered a broken hand after the second game and he wound up missing the next six games.

Coleman, 23, is a former first-round pick of the Browns back in 2016. He’s currently in the second year of his four-year, $11.654 million contract and stands to make base salaries of $979,773 and $1.5 million over the next two years of the agreement.

Entering today’s game, Coleman had caught five passes for 53 yards receiving and one touchdown.

We’ll have more regarding Coleman’s injury and timetable as the news is available.
