Browns' Martin Emerson: Full go Wednesday
Emerson (ribs) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice.
Emerson sustained a rib injury in the Browns' Week 6 loss to the Eagles, but Wednesday's full practice suggests he's already moved past the issue. Expect the third-year pro out of Mississippi State to continue starting alongside Denzel Ward (hamstring) and Greg Newsome as part of the Browns' top cornerback trio ahead of Cleveland's Week 7 matchup against the Bengals.

Browns' Martin Emerson: Laments rough start
Emerson acknowledged to Chris Easterling of the Akron Beacon Journal that he has not played well to start the 2024 season. "Self-evaluation, I'm not playing the ball that I want to play right now," Emerson said.
Emerson emerged as a capable cornerback in 2023 and allowed one touchdown on 73 targets, per Pro Football Focus, but progress has not been linear in 2024. He's given up three touchdowns and allowed 16 catches on 25 targets through five games. That included a 41-yard touchdown against Washington last week just before halftime to give the Commanders a 24-3 lead. Things will not get easier in Week 6 for Emerson, who will be tasked with guarding Eagles wideouts A.J. Brown (hamstring) and DeVonta Smith (concussion), both of whom logged full practices Wednesday and are expected to play following a bye week.

Browns' Martin Emerson: Enters concussion protocol
Emerson is in concussion protocol following Sunday's 20-16 loss to the Raiders, per coach Kevin Stefanski, Kelsey Russo of the Browns' official site reports.
Emerson was evaluated for a head injury after the game, and the tests revealed a concussion. He will need to clear the NFL's five-step concussion protocol in order to play against the Commanders in Week 5. Mike Ford and Cameron Mitchell are options to start opposite Denzel Ward if Emerson misses time, or nickel cornerback Greg Newsome could shift outside.

Browns' Martin Emerson: Cleared to suit up Thursday

Emerson departed Sunday's Week 16 game against Houston early and logged a limited practice session both Monday and Tuesday, but he was able to return to full participation Wednesday.

He saw the field for 26 defensive snaps (53 percent) and three on special teams (14 percent) before exiting with a shin injury.
