Browns Rookie RB Faces 4-5 Month Recovery

Cleveland Browns rookie running back Quinshon Judkins has undergone successful surgery to repair a broken fibula and a dislocated right ankle. The injury occurred late in the second quarter of Sunday's game against the Buffalo Bills, when Judkins was tackled low by linebacker Matt Milano.

While initially feared to be a more severe knee injury, it was confirmed that Judkins avoided any damage to his ligaments. This outcome provides relief for the team and the player, with a projected recovery timeline of 4-5 months. Head coach Kevin Stefanski expressed his disappointment for Judkins but praised his character and dedication.

Before his injury, Judkins was having a strong rookie season, amassing 827 rushing yards and seven touchdowns through 14 games. Despite the premature end to his season, the successful surgery offers a positive outlook for his return next season.
