Denzel Ward: Worrying image emerges surrounding Browns' star defender

Cleveland Browns fans have been left dismayed over an image that has emerged of cornerback Denzel Ward. 

To say that this offseason has been chaotic for the Cleveland Browns might be something of an understatement. There is the controversy that is surrounding presumed starting quarterback Deshaun Watson and his accusations of sexual misconduct, whilst they are struggling to get rid of last season’s starter Baker Mayfield despite reports that there are teams out there who are willing to bring him on board. 

The last thing that they need is for something else to come along and make things even worse for them and their preparations for the 2022 NFL season, a season in which they’ll be hoping to get back on track after finishing 2021 with a losing record, this after one of the best seasons in the team’s recent history in 2020 when they won their first playoff game since 1994. 

However, news that is emerging regarding Denzel Ward might not be the thing that they wanted to see happen next. 

The 25-year-old Ward, taken in the first round of the 2018 draft has certainly proved his worth to the Browns over the years, being one of the critical players on defence that has helped turn them from a laughing stock around the league into a contender in the AFC North.

With 186 combined tackles in the regular season to go along with 50 pass deflections, 10 interceptions and 2 pick-sixes, he has become one of the most productive cornerbacks in the league. This meant that when the Browns gave him a $100.5m contract back in April, you could certainly say that it was well-deserved.
