    Browns' Myles Garrett has lateral foot sprain, expected to be ready for training camp

    CLEVELAND, Ohio -- The Browns caught a break Saturday regarding No. 1 overall pick Myles Garrett's injured left foot.
    Two doctors diagnosed him with a lateral foot sprain and he's expected to be ready for training camp in late July, the Browns announced Saturday.
    Garrett was first diagnosed by Browns head team physician Dr. James Voos of University Hospitals, and then as part of the team's process, by specialist Dr. Robert Anderson of OrthoCarolina, who did not examine him in person but reviewed the exams.
    It's good news for the Browns, who hoped that Garrett didn't sustain any major structural damage such as a fracture or Lisfranc injury after he went down in minicamp on Wednesday afternoon. A Lisfranc injury would've required surgery and up to a year-long recovery.
    As it is, a patient with Garrett's diagnosis can expect to be about 80% in about four to six weeks, and fully recovered within three months, depending on the severity of the partial or complete tear of the soft tissue in the foot, according an independent foot and ankle surgeon who has not examined Garrett.
    Garrett is currently in a walking boot and will receive treatment on the ankle over the next six weeks. He'll have to rest it for awhile, but will gradually work his way back into shape for camp, which is set to begin on July 27th.
    Garrett will likely be eased back into action in camp, and not full-go right away.
    The injury is a new sprain and not related to any previous injury. Garrett had been limited in organized team activities with what a source told cleveland.com was a sore foot that was also briefly immobilized in a boot.
    He also suffered a left high ankle sprain last season at Texas A&M that hampered him all season and limited him to 8 1/2 sacks.
    The No. 1 overall pick in the draft, Garrett injured it on the second day of minicamp and was photographed in the boot at Cleveland Hopkins International Airport on Friday morning as he was leaving town for the summer break.
    It happened on a would-be sack of Brock Osweiler in a two-minute drill late in the non-contact practice when he stormed in off the edge. He immediately fell to his knees in pain, and clutched his left foot.
    He hobbled off the field and was examined on the sidelines, and later limped into the fieldhouse after the lightning sirens went off.
    Garrett was absent from the practice field on the last day of minicamp Thursday while he underwent further evaluation on the foot, and was also excused Friday morning from attending a youth clinic at FirstEnergy Stadium with his fellow rookies.
    The injury caused immediate concern because of Garrett's injury history with his left lower leg. Garrett had admitted that he was frustrated sitting out some of OTAs because he "wanted to be out there grinding'' with his teammates.
    Garrett suffered the injury after a minicamp sack of Brock Osweiler, but received treatment on the sidelines and didn't leave the field.
    Garrett's good friend and fellow rookie Larry Ogunjobi said Friday morning at the youth clinic that he was helping Garrett keep his spirits up.
    "It sucks, especially when he's one of your good friends,'' Ogunjobi said of seeing Garrett falls to his knees and grab his foot. "I've known Myles for just a short period of time, but we've connected and you know how good of a person he is because he's humble and he's hungry and really wants to be great. So you know it sucks, but it's part of the game. It's part of the process and you know he's going to bounce back.''
    He said Garrett is handling it well.
    "You know, same mentality, one day at a time,'' Ogunjobi said. "That's the nature of the game. That's just what it is. You kind of have to keep him in high spirits, you keep him going and you know he's good. He's still smiling, he's still feeling good. It's just part of life. You can't really be up and down. You've got to be even keel and just take it one day at a time.''
    First-round tight end David Njoku agreed that Garrett has had a a great attitude.
    "Myles is always a happy camper,'' he said. "So he's just fine."
    Defensive coordinator Gregg Williams has been impressed with Garrett in the limited reps he's had since rookie minicamp last month.
    "He's done a great job,'' said Williams. "It's still way early, but you guys are going to see a pretty good football player when he gets a chance to get out there and go. I've got a big smile on my face, I'm just waiting to let him show everybody before I talk about him.''
    Defensive line coach Clyde Simmons is also eager for his return.
    "He's everything we (expected,)'' Simmons said. "Coach Jackson will handle all of the injury stuff. Myles is everything we expected."
    Garrett signed his fully guaranteed four-year deal worth $30.4 million on May 19th. It included a $20.258 million signing bonus and a club option for a fifth year.
    The Browns drafted Garrett No. 1 overall after his stellar career at Texas A&M, where he had 32 1/2 sacks in three seasons, which were tops in the country from 2014-16. He was also a two-time Lombardi Award finalist for the nation's best linebacker.
    Garrett had flashed some of that first-round explosiveness in spring practices.
    "(You see) a guy who's just ready to play,'' Ogunjobi said. "We work together when we do our position drills and stuff like that. You just see a guy who knows what he wants to do and how he wants to do it. He's a guy you can learn a lot from.''
    Now, the Browns are hoping he'll pick up right where he left off, when he elicited a "Holy Smokes!'' from Jackson for his explosiveness off the edge.

    Staph ended Bentleys career. Wasn't the injury.

    Did he get staph from the surgery for the injury? If so, why wouldn't the injury be considered the beginning of the end? The body can't be a host without the knife... The knife isn't needed without the injury so I see the injury as pertinent here.

    The environment after the surgery. Which, I might add, was rather routine.

    So...yeah. staph.

    While you made a very good point T - does he get the staph infection if he never has the surgery for the knee injury? No.

    According to an article I read by Rick Stroud & Greg Auman titled "Ex-Browns tell of staph infection anguish", Bentley contracted MRSA at the Browns training facility while recovering from surgery. The wound/incision became the opportunity for the infection to enter the host (Bentley) and it was game over, career over with a threat life could be over.

    Id be curious what you would say if Trubs went down with a sprained ankle?.....just one of those things?.....or bad pick?

    Myles ankle injury cannot be an "I told you so moment", unless of course you predicted it......and, if memory serves me, you are the one who was just saying he had a broken foot or needed surgery....correct?....

    Its a sprain guys......and NOT a high sprain, which is what he suffered in college.....AND STILL played well enough to be the consensus #1 pick......which, to me, just shows he's tough and driven....cause he played through it(at a high level)......while most would be sitting.....

    Kinda like your tooth pick story Mud, I had a fractured navicular bone that took 4 yrs to correctly diagnose. I would wake up in the morning feeling fine, but by the end of the day I could not walk without a severe limp. The reason it took 4yrs was because of it being misdiagnosed. I finally went to the doctor that fixed Z's foot at the Cle Clinic and in one day had the correct diagnosis. Surgery, 2 months in a hard cast then a walking boot. Hence the reason why i won't believe it til I see it.

Hence the reason why i won't believe it til I see it.

    Well....I hope your wrong.....

    Since Myles has an "ankle" injury, Ill hold out hope that it doesnt become a broken foot.....

    Whoops....edit.....I see it is a foot sprain.....my bad.....

    But.....then.....that kind of nixes the ole "repeat" injury thing that Ghoolies been blathering about.....

    Did he get staph from the surgery for the injury? If so, why wouldn't the injury be considered the beginning of the end? The body can't be a host without the knife... The knife isn't needed without the injury so I see the injury as pertinent here.

    The environment after the surgery. Which, I might add, was rather routine.

    So...yeah. staph.

    In your football time, Have you ran across a guy with Myles foot injury? My real concern would be, with most players after OTA's, they continue on working & molding their bodies staying with football conditioning & their endurance? I'd hope Myles would be running like 10 days before camp? Showing up to camp at even 85% sounds iffy to me?

    Yes. I've seen that type of injury in non contact sports as well, namely soccer and cross country.

    Great? I'll PM Pele & Caitlin Jenner. 😉 I'll re-phase the question. How does he maintain his football preparation for camp with a boot on? boot maybe off in 2 weeks running in 3? longer? your non-doctor guess would be?

    Dang, Mud, that was close. With my "new" bionic knee, I will always have to take

    antibiotics when I'm going to the dentist. Infections are no joke alright - that was

    too close for you. That is just awful.

    It was like a bad dream.....funny part is that, now, whenever someone spots a toothpick on the ground....we form a 10 ft radius and handle that killer immediately.....infections AND toothpicks are no jokes in this house.....ha!

    Glad you're still with us Mud. Those antibiotic resistant bugs can be killers.

    But regarding that toothpick- another story. Needed a new set of tires and walked into the local tire store. There's a jar of junk on the counter that the guys in back had pulled out of flats- usual stuff- nails, screws, metal shavings- and a toothpick. Asked the counter guy- you're kidding about the toothpick, right? Nope, ruined the tire too- it went through the sidewall, non-repairable flat.

    Usually 2-3 immobile and hitting up the anti inflammatories. Then depending on pain work to slowly stretch and strengthen ligaments. NFL teams have elite facilities for rehabbing injuries so I'm sure while Myles is walking and jogging he'll have a protective shoe. I'm positive they've scanned his feet to determine if he needs custom inserts for his soles. You'd be surprised how far they go towards relieving pain in the foot and ultimately through the knee.

    A few months back I said something along the lines of him getting hurt and the ONLY person who didn't say I was dumb for thinking that was the guy you all hate. I was not trying to jinx or wanting Myles or anybody ever to get hurt I was only saying "what if" Seems to me every time we have a "big draft pick" they either get hurt or just suck. The way i see ii since we had so much cap space we should of went all in in free agency, get some teammates that have chemistry then worry about draft. I want some wins soon and not want to draft players that will take 3 years to get their shit straight just in time to leave the land.

    I won't be convinced he's ok til I see him get through camp without a limp.

    Id be curious what you would say if Trubs went down with a sprained ankle?.....just one of those things?.....or bad pick?

    Myles ankle injury cannot be an "I told you so moment", unless of course you predicted it......and, if memory serves me, you are the one who was just saying he had a broken foot or needed surgery....correct?....

    Its a sprain guys......and NOT a high sprain, which is what he suffered in college.....AND STILL played well enough to be the consensus #1 pick......which, to me, just shows he's tough and driven....cause he played through it(at a high level)......while most would be sitting.....

    I think you are severely underplaying this Mud. It is obvious he had a pre-existing condition (vaginitis) that has turned into cervical cancer and will cause him to collect his guaranteed 30+Mil$ without ever playing one regular season game. 😉

    Well, now that he's hurt, Heal Him Up! Or are you not a real medicine man?
