Extent of Winslow Injuries Learned....

Browns are unable to comment...

CLEVELAND (AP) -- The Cleveland Browns finally know how much damage Kellen Winslow Jr. did to his right knee. Now, they can't say how badly he's hurt.

The club has not received authorization from Winslow or his family to disclose any of the injuries the tight end sustained when he crashed his motorcycle on May 1, team spokesman Bill Bonsiewicz said.

Winslow underwent an MRI exam on Tuesday at the Cleveland Clinic. Doctors had been waiting for the swelling to go down before they could do further tests. The Browns received the results on Wednesday but they can't release them to the public until Winslow or his representatives give them permission.

Winslow could be waiting to get another medical opinion before disclosing the extent of his injury.

The club has braced itself for bad news on Winslow, who could miss the upcoming season. The former Miami star played in only two games as a rookie last season before breaking his right leg while trying to recover an onside kick in Week 2.

While riding his newly purchased motorcycle in a parking lot near his Westlake home, the 21-year-old Winslow was hurt when he slammed the high-powered bike into a curb and went flying over the handlebars.

He spent nine days in the hospital before being released.

Police have concluded their investigation of Winslow's accident and turned over their case to Westlake law director John Wheeler, who will determine whether charges should be filed, Lt. Ray Arcuri said.

Wheeler did not return a phone call seeking comment.

Police never interviewed Winslow about the accident because his attorney wanted to know the questions in advance, said Arcuri, who called the request "silly."

Winslow could be charged with reckless operation, which carries a maximum penalty of 30 days in jail and a $250 fine.

His use of a motorcycle violated standard NFL player contract language that prohibits players from engaging in dangerous activities. The Browns could require him to return millions of dollars in signing bonuses. The team has declined to comment on his contract.

BEREA -- Kellen Winslow is out for the 2005 season.

<LI class=video><TABLE align=right><TBODY><TR><TD align=middle>



</TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE>Channel 3 News has learned that he has a significant right-knee injury.

The results of the MRI on Winslow's injured right leg have not been made public, but sources tell us that they show an injury to his ACL.

Winslow knows the results and so do the Browns, but the Winslow family will not allow the information to be become public.

Winslow was injured May 1st in Westlake while riding a motorcycle in a parking lot. Winslow missed nearly all of his rookie year with the Browns after breaking his leg against Dallas in Week 2.

Heard on the radio a few things. Apparantly Daylon McCutcheon said it was the largest swollen knee he has ever seen. Also according to WTAM he could be out for up to 18 months after surgery. That means 2006 season could be in jeopardy too. But until the Winslow family lets the Browns hold a press conference and tell anyone officially what this is. It is all speculation.

probably not a good sign that it takes two weeks for the swelling to go down....when i blew my knee out, they were able to diagnose the damage the next day....

Yeah, 9 days in the hospital would seem to be a sign it was a little more than some bumps and bruises to me. The solja was probably pretty damn close to being a K.I.A if the truth is ever revealed.

</TD><TD noWrap width=3></TD><TD vAlign=top>Winslow Out for the Season
By Barry McBride
Date: May 18, 2005

(UPDATED 5/18 9:30PM) No definitive word has come from Berea, but the early buzz on Winslow's MRI could not be called positive. Our sources close to the team are making unhappy noises about Winslow's status, and some early reports from other sources are beginning to appear.
</TD></TR><TR><TD colSpan=3>
Bernie's Insiders, like every other sports outlet in Cleveland, has been seeking to learn what the results from Kellen Winslow's MRI mean to the 2005 Browns.

Our sources have been saying that Winslow's knee does not look good, and that they're pessimistic about the tight end playing in 2005. We do not have word from official channels or from individuals in Winslow's immediate camp, however, so we are being told this by individuals who have not been directly involved in meetings between Winslow, his representatives, and the team.

The team's hand-picked broadcaster, however, does sound like he has definitive word about Winslow's status. Jim Donovan reports via WKYC that Winslow's ACL will keep him out of the 2005 season.

As we've reported, Winslow has had heavy swelling in his knee, giving all involved a great deal of concern about whether or not there was a tear of Winslows ACL. While Donovan did not state specifically - and we have not confirmed independently - that Winslow has torn his ACL, his status for 2005 as reported by Donovan would lead one to believe that this is the case.


UPDATE 5/18 9:30PM
Mid-Jersey Dawg has let us know via the tipline that the NFL Network and Rich Eisen have also reported that Winslow is done for the year. Eisen is the first to say that Winslow has a torn ACL, although the source of the story on the league-owned network was not made clear

The Browns need to draft a medic to take care of their wounded soljah.

Of all the things I hate about Winslow I now hate him even more for making me revel in the misfortunes of another human being.

All part of a great conspiracy to get you in touch with the dark side of the force.

from what I understand this is very similar to the injury suffered by Browns 2004 2nd round draft pick Sean Jones... he injured it in camp and sat out the entire season, but seems to be ready for this year. I think this is likely to be the same deal with winslow, assuming his recovery goes as plan.

My guess... out for all of 2005, back for 2006
