Ready to rock Ward (shoulder/toe) has no injury designation ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Lions, Scott Petrak of the Elyria Chronicle-Telegram reports.

Impact Ward upgraded from a DNP at Wednesday's practice to a full session Friday, suggesting he's moved past his injuries in time to face the Lions on Sunday. The Ohio State product has logged eight total tackles and two passes defended over Cleveland's first three games this season. He's expected to start opposite Greg Newsome as part of the Browns' top outside cornerback duo in Week 4.

Returns to practice Thursday Ward (shoulder/toe) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

Impact Ward opened the week with a DNP, though he's been working through multiple injuries to start the season, so his limited session Thursday is likely a result of load-management. He should avoid an injury designation heading into Sunday's road game against the Lions with a full practice Friday. Ward has eight tackles (six solo) and two pass defenses through the first three games of the regular season.

After misses in opener, Browns kicker Andre Szmyt rebounds with game-winner

Sits out practice Wednesday Ward (shoulder/toe) is not practicing Wednesday, Scott Petrak of the Elyria Chronicle-Telegram reports.

Impact Ward played 100 percent of snaps during Cleveland's win over the Packers in Week 3, but he's now sitting out practice due to a pair of injuries. He opened the prior practice week as limited due to shoulder and Achilles issues, so there's precedent for Ward's lack of practice reps simply being the result of load-management. Ward will have two more chances to get back on the practice field ahead of Sunday's road matchup against the Lions.

Back for second half Ward (cramps) has returned to Sunday's game against the Ravens, Scott Petrak of the Elyria Chronicle-Telegram reports.

Impact Ward briefly left in the first half due to cramping, but the veteran corner has been cleared to return for the start of the third quarter. Jarrick Bernard-Converse will return to a rotational role at outside corner behind Ward and Greg Newsome.

Will suit up at Baltimore Ward (shoulder, Achilles) does not carry an injury designation ahead of Sunday's game against the Ravens, Zac Jackson of The Athletic reports.

Impact Ward was limited by shoulder and Achilles issues during practice Wednesday and Thursday, but he practiced in full Friday and is on track to play in Week 2. He figures to spend a good chunk of his snaps trying to cover up Rashod Bateman and DeAndre Hopkins on the boundary Sunday.

Limited to open practice week Ward was a limited participant at practice Wednesday due to shoulder and Achilles issues, Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Ward has been dealing with the shoulder issue since mid-August, but the Achilles injury is a new concern. However, the veteran cornerback logged 96 percent of Cleveland's defensive snaps Week 1 versus Cincinnati and managed a limited practice session Wednesday, so he may be able to play through the issues. If he can't suit up Sunday against Baltimore, though, Cameron Mitchell may be pressed into a starting role.

Available for season opener Ward (shoulder) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Bengals, Mary Kay Cabot of the Cleveland Plan Dealer reports.

Impact Ward was limited in practice Wednesday and Thursday by a shoulder injury sustained during training camp, but he practiced without limitations Friday and has been cleared to suit up Week 1. Cleveland's top cornerback can't afford any physical limitations Sunday against Ja'Marr Chase and the prolific Bengals passing attack.
