Johnathan Abram - Page 5 - NFL News, Rumors, & Updates

Returns to practice Tuesday Abram (concussion/neck) was a limited participant in Tuesday's practice, Josh Dubow of the Associated Press reports.

Impact Abram returned to practice for the first time since suffering a concussion in a Week 14 loss to the Colts. This gives him a chance to play against the Dolphins on Saturday; he'll first need to clear the league's five-step concussion protocol. If he gets the green light, he'll return to his starting strong safety position, where he has piled up 77 tackles through 11 games.

Won't play Thursday Abram (concussion) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Chargers, Paul Gutierrez of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Abram was concussed in last week's loss to Indianapolis and failed to clear the league's five-step concussion protocol on a short week. Per Gutierrez, coach Jon Gruden said he looks forward to Dallin Leavitt stepping up, so Leavitt will likely help veteran Lamarcus Joyner fill the void at safety created by Abram's absence. Abram will need to clear the concussion protocol in order to play in Week 16 against Miami.

In concussion protocol Abram suffered a concussion during Sunday's 44-27 loss to the Colts, Paul Gutierrez of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Abram will need to clear the league's five-step concussion protocol before he can play in a game. With a short practice week ahead of Thursday's matchup against the Chargers, there's a decent chance that Abram misses his third game of the season. Lamarcus Joyner likely would start at strong safety if Abram sits out.

Evaluated for concussion Abram is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Colts while being evaluated for a concussion.

Impact Abram exited Sunday's game late in the fourth quarter, so it's basically guaranteed that he won't return. If he is diagnosed with a concussion, though, it could jeopardize his availability for Thursday's upcoming tilt against the Chargers.

Misses practice Wednesday Abram (knee) didn't suit up in Wednesday's practice.

Impact Abram saw action in 96 percent of defensive snaps in Sunday's loss to the Falcons, so the team could be looking to monitor his practice snaps leading up to Week 13. The 2019 first-round pick has been outstanding in his last four games, racking up 31 tackles (23 solo), two pass breakups and an interception. If Abram was unable to suit up in Week 13's game against the Jets, Lamarcus Joyner would be in line for the start at strong safety.

Impact The 24-year-old landed on the COVID-19 list earlier in the week as a high-risk close contact, but he's back on the roster in time for Sunday's matchup with Kansas City. Abram should serve in his usual starting role against the Chiefs' high-powered offense.

Managing injury Abram (groin) was a limited participant during Wednesday's practice.

It's unclear how serious the groin injury is for the Mississippi State product, but expect his practice availability the rest of the week to shed a better light on his chances to play this week. If he's forced to miss time, Jeff Heath would be in line for a start at strong safety.
