Analyst Names LB Prospect That Can Replace Jeremiah Owusu-Koramoah

With just under three weeks remaining before the 2025 NFL Draft kicks off, the Cleveland Browns have left fans and analysts in the dark about linebacker Jeremiah Owusu-Koramoah’s availability for the upcoming season.

The organization has yet to disclose Owusu-Koramoah’s prognosis, leading to questions about whether he’ll play again after sustaining a neck injury against the Baltimore Ravens last season.

Analyst Lance Reisland is looking at potential long-term replacements for the fourth-year veteran without any guidance from the Browns on the linebacker’s availability.

Reisland has one player in mind, naming Alabama linebacker Jihaad Campbell as a player Cleveland could look to replace Owusu-Koramoah’s role on the Browns’ defense.

“With ability to play multiple positions, cover multiple offensive players, blitz from various area on the field, and tackle in space, Campbell would be a great fit in Schwartz’s aggressive scheme. Campbell would be a three-down linebacker that can stop the run on early downs and blitz, play the defensive end, or cover on passing downs,” Reisland wrote.

Cleveland would need to use their second-round draft pick for Campbell, Reisland said.

Campbell is a 6-foot-3 junior who declared after his third season with the Crimson Tide.

The linebacker played in 35 games for the SEC school, and he enjoyed his best single-season stats last year with 117 tackles, five sacks, two pass deflections, and one interception.
