Browns' Carson Schwesinger: Ready for Sunday
Schwesinger (ankle) has no injury designation ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Bills, Chris Easterling of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.
The 22-year-old upgraded from limited practice Wednesday and Thursday to a full session Friday, suggesting he's moved past his ankle issue in time to play Sunday. Schwesinger has had an incredible rookie campaign thus far, recording 133 total tackles, including 1.5 sacks, and three passes defensed, with two interceptions, over 14 contests. He's expected to serve as the Browns' top middle linebacker in Week 16.

Schwesinger has been limited in practice with the ankle injury for the last few weeks but has continued to play through the ailment.

Schwesinger paced the Browns in tackles in a losing effort.

Browns' Carson Schwesinger: Set to play Sunday
Schwesinger (ankle) has no injury designation ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Bears, Scott Petrak of the Elyria Chronicle-Telegram reports.
Similar to the injury report status from Week 14, Schwesinger was again limited both Wednesday and Thursday, but he should not be impacted for Week 15 as he has no injury designation heading into Sunday's contest against the Bears. The standout rookie has 119 tackles (55 solo), including 1.5 sacks, and three pass breakups, including two interceptions, in 13 games this season.

Browns' Carson Schwesinger: Paces Browns with 13 stops Week 14
Schwesinger notched 13 tackles (six solo) and a defensed pass Sunday in a loss to Tennessee.
Schwesinger continued his standout rookie campaign, leading Cleveland in tackles and setting a new single-game career-high mark. The talented linebacker has now recorded double-digit stops in five consecutive contests as he's quickly established himself as a premier IDP option. With 119 stops on the season, Schwesinger has already put his name in the Browns' record books with the highest mark by a rookie, though it would take a huge finish to the campaign for him to reach the NFL rookie record of 174 tackles set by Patrick Willis in 2007.

Browns' Carson Schwesinger: Ready to rock
Schwesinger (ankle) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Titans, Chris Easterling of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.
Schwesinger was able to upgrade to full participation in practice Friday, just in time to dodge an injury designation for Sunday's contest. The linebacker has been consistently playing through the ankle injury he likely sustained against the Raiders in Week 12, and this week seems to be no different. The rookie second-rounder is the green dot of the defense, so the Browns maintaining a consistent signal caller for Week 14 should have a large impact on that side of the ball.

Browns' Carson Schwesinger: Limited again by ankle
Schwesinger (ankle) was limited at Thursday's practice.
Schwesinger was limited for a second consecutive practice, presumably with the same ankle injury that the rookie linebacker dealt with last week. He's been limited during practices with ankle or shoulder injuries the last month, but Schwesinger logged double-digit tackles in four straight contests. That four-game stretch was influential in him being named the Defensive Rookie of the Month for November, per Kelsey Russo of the Browns' official site.

Browns' Carson Schwesinger: Limited Wednesday due to ankle issue
Schwesinger (ankle) was limited in Wednesday's practice.
Schwesinger produced double-digit tackles for the fourth straight week against the 49ers on Sunday, but he also suffered an ankle injury during the loss. It's promising that he was able to practice Wednesday, albeit in a limited fashion, and the rookie linebacker will have two more days this week to return to full participation. In the event Schwesinger isn't able to suit up Sunday versus Tennessee, Jerome Baker could step into a more prominent role.

Schwesinger dealt with an ankle injury during the week of preparation leading up to Week 13, but as was the case whenever he's popped up an injury report, the rookie linebacker was ready to go. He's logged four consecutive games with double-digit stops and leads the team with 106 tackles through 12 games.

Browns' Carson Schwesinger: Good to go for Week 13
Schwesinger (ankle) doesn't carry an injury designation into Sunday's game against the 49ers, Zac Jackson of The Athletic reports.
Schwesinger saw some limited practice reps earlier in the week but is good to go for Week 13. The rookie linebacker has appeared in all 11 games this season, recording 96 tackles (44 solo), including 1.5 sacks, and two interceptions.

Browns' Carson Schwesinger: Limited at practice
Schwesinger (ankle) logged a limited practice Wednesday, Zac Jackson of The Athletic reports.
Schwesinger led the team in takedowns in Cleveland's 24-10 win over the Raiders in Week 12, notching 11 total tackles in the contest, but he may have suffered an ankle injury in the process. The linebacker played 96 percent of the team's defensive snaps versus Las Vegas, which may suggest that the ankle injury is minor. Schwesinger will have two more chances to notch a full practice before Sunday's matchup with San Francisco.

Browns' Carson Schwesinger: Logs pick in loss
Schwesinger recorded a team-high 11 tackles, one pass defensed and an interception in Sunday's 23-16 loss to the Ravens in Week 11.
Schwesinger led the Browns in tackles for a second consecutive game and came up big with a pick after Cleveland had turned the ball over deep in its own territory. The rookie linebacker, who popped up on the injury report each of the last two weeks, played every snap on the defense for a second straight game. He leads the team with 85 tackles and is tied for the team lead with two interceptions.

Browns' Carson Schwesinger: Good to go
Schwesinger (shoulder) has no injury designation ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Ravens, Scott Petrak of the Elyria Chronicle-Telegram reports.
The starting middle linebacker logged a week of limited practice sessions, enough to be cleared of the shoulder injury he likely sustained in the Browns' Week 10 loss to the Jets. Schwesinger logged a team-high nine tackles, including a half-sack, while playing 100 percent of the team's defensive snaps in the loss. Schwesinger is the wearer of the defensive green dot, so the Browns will need the rookie's prowess and communication for a tough AFC North showdown with the Ravens on Sunday.

Browns' Carson Schwesinger: Nursing shoulder injury
Schwesinger was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice due to a shoulder injury, Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN.com reports.
Schwesinger overcame an ankle injury to play in the Browns' Week 10 loss to the Jets, when he logged a team-high nine tackles, including 0.5 sacks, while playing every single defensive snap. He now appears to be working through a shoulder issue, though his ability to practice Wednesday in a limited capacity indicates the injury isn't serious. The rookie second-rounder would avoid an injury designation heading into Sunday's AFC North tilt against the Ravens if he practices in full Thursday or Friday.

Browns' Carson Schwesinger: Leading tackler in loss
Schwesinger recorded nine tackles, two for a loss, two quarterback hits and 0.5 sacks in Sunday's 27-20 loss to the Jets in Week 10.
Schwesinger battled an ankle injury that he sustained against the Patriots in Week 8, but the rookie was able to play 100 percent of the defensive snaps and led the club in tackles. He also took a regular turn on special teams, adding a tackle on the kickoff team. Schwesinger leads Cleveland with 74 tackles through nine games.

Schwesinger (ankle) is active for Sunday's matchup with the Jets.
The rookie middle linebacker suffered a high ankle sprain during the Browns' Week 8 loss to the Patriots and then missed two practice sessions following the team's Week 9 bye. At the same time, the injury was never believed to be "major," per Ian Rapoport of NFL Network. Schwesinger has enjoyed a strong rookie season, with 64 total tackles, including 1.0 sacks, and one interception.
