    Browns RB D'Onta Foreman Scores In 27-12 Preseason Loss To Vikings

    By Wil Riggs,

    Three weeks ago, Cleveland Browns running back D’Onta Forman was carted off the field with his head and neck immobilized after a scary hit at training camp. Following negative MRIs, CT scans and X-rays, Foreman was released from the hospital the next day.

    A week later, the former Texas Longhorn and eight-year veteran was back on the practice field. On Saturday night, Foreman took the field for the Browns, carrying the ball 10 times for 18 yards and a touchdown.

    Following the game, Foreman was asked about the incident.

    "I remember the whole thing," Foreman said. "We were just out there working hard, getting some good work in. I went to make initial contact, we were working on punt rushes, with my head down and pretty much it kind of jammed and went down my spine area, and I just felt a sharp pain.

    “Once I let them know and they felt around and felt where the pain was at, they just wanted to be extra cautious about everything."

    On top of his 28 rushing yards, Foreman also contributed 5 catches for 40 yards in the Browns 27-12 loss to the Vikings in Cleveland last night. For the former third-round pick, it was about a lot more than winning and losing.

    "I think it puts a lot into perspective about how fast life can change and how things can happen," Foreman explained. "So, to be able to still be healthy and to be able to come out here and play the game that I love to play, stuff I've been working hard for – I'm just very thankful for that."
