Browns' Carson Schwesinger: Sustains high-ankle sprain
Schwesinger sustained a high-ankle sprain in Sunday's 32-13 loss to the Patriots, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports.
The 22-year-old played 66 total snaps (57 on defense, nine on special teams) and recorded five total tackles and an interception prior to exiting Sunday's loss with an ankle issue. Although Schwesinger sustained a high-ankle sprain, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network revealed that it's not believed to be "major," and he'll be re-evaluated following Cleveland's Week 9 bye. The rookie linebacker has been an integral part of the Browns' defense thus far, recording a team-leading 64 total tackles to go with a sack and an interception over his first eight NFL games. Mohamoud Diabate and Jerome Baker will both likely have expanded defensive roles if Schwesigner misses time. Zac Jackson of The Athletic reports that the rookie is expected to avoid a stint on injured reserve.

Browns' Carson Schwesinger: Hurts ankle, slated for MRI
Schwesinger is believed to have suffered a high ankle sprain during Sunday's Week 8 loss to New England and is slated for an MRI, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Schwesinger was hurt midway through the fourth quarter and didn't return. He had a nice game before getting injured, tallying five tackles and an interception. the typical recovery timeline for a high ankle sprain is about four to six weeks, and the results of Schwesinger's MRI should provide some clarity about whether he's at risk of missing time. However, Cleveland has a Week 9 bye, so Schwesinger will have some extra time to recover before the Browns' next game, which will take place Sunday, Nov. 9 against the Jets.

Browns' Carson Schwesinger: Primed for big role as rookie
Schwesinger called defensive plays in team drills on the first day of training camp, Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN.com reports.
Drafted 33rd overall this spring, Schwesinger is in an excellent position for a starting job after the Browns lost their top two linebackers from last year.
