It is Wednesday, September 28, 2022, and the Cleveland Browns are preparing for their Week 4 game in Atlanta against the Falcons.
Of course, everyone is breathing a collective sigh of relief that Myles Garrett is resting at home and dealing with only minor injuries from his Monday afternoon car accident.
News about Garrett headlines the Wednesday edition of Browns Nation news and notes.
1. Myles Garrett Is On The Mend
Mary Kay Cabot reported that Garrett’s injuries include a shoulder sprain and biceps strain as well as cuts.

The notable points are that he did not suffer any fractures, he cleared concussion protocol, and doctors will continue to evaluate him as the week goes on and a later determination will be made regarding his ability to play on Sunday.
I’m just glad that Myles was OK and not seriously hurt in what looked like a gnarly crash. The idea he would suit up for the #Browns in just a few days is wild. https://t.co/NthfMZnJy4

“The idea he would suit up for the Browns in just a few days is wild.”
Whether he plays or not on Sunday is immaterial in the big picture.
It is great to know that he is going to be okay.

Long before Walker was injured, some were predicting this could be Phillips’ breakout year.

4. Grant Delpit Goes Back To Elementary School
Grand Delpit was recently spotted in the community at Big Creek Elementary School.
He was doing football skills drills with the kids.
Both Delpit and the kids looked like they were having a great time.
