CLEVELAND — The Cleveland Browns have confirmed that wide receiver Michael Woods II suffered a ruptured Achilles tendon while working out in Texas.
Woods was working out with quarterback Deshaun Watson in Texas when he suffered the injury.
Initial fears were that Woods had torn his Achilles tendon, a league source told News 5 Tuesday morning, and the diagnosis was confirmed a short time later by team doctors.
The ruptured Achilles injury will likely see the second-year receiver miss the entire 2023 season.
Last year as a rookie, Woods played in 10 games, recording five catches for 45 yards. Woods was sidelined occasionally last season with a hamstring injury.
Meanwhile, activities at the Browns' facilities are soon to ramp up with offseason workouts in Berea able to begin on April 17.
