According to Mike Garafolo, Browns LB Mack Wilson sustained a “significant” knee hyperextension in Tuesday’s practice.
Garafolo adds that Wilson is expected to miss “some time” and a time frame of recovery will become following evaluations.
Ian Rapoport also reports that season-ending surgery is “on the table” for Wilson.
The Browns had Wilson working with the second-team unit on Tuesday when he suffered a left leg injury and was carted off the field.
Wilson, 22, is a former fifth-round pick by the Browns in the 2019 NFL Draft out of Alabama. He is entering the second year of his four-year, $2.8 million rookie contract and stands to make a base salary of $675,000 for the 2020 season.
In 2019, Wilson appeared all 16 games for the Browns and recorded 82 tackles, one sack, an interception, a forced fumble and seven passes defended.
