Browns tight end Kellen Winslow Jr. underwent arthroscopic surgery on his reconstructed right knee in January, Browns General Manager Phil Savage confirmed Thursday.

 

"It was just a very minor procedure to clear out some scar tissue from his previous surgery," Savage said. "The doctors tell me he's doing great and he's at the facility [in Berea] working out every day."

 

Winslow initially underwent surgery on the knee on June 14 to repair a torn anterior cruciate ligament suffered in his May 1 motorcycle accident. But it hasn't been an easy road back for the former sixth overall pick in the 2004 draft.

 

In August, he revealed he was recovering from a staph infection in the right knee that caused him to lose almost 30 pounds.

 

He later said the infection penetrated the joint, which can be career-threatening. In an interview in November, he said he was 75 percent back.

 

He also said then that he knows people doubt whether he'll make it back.

 

"Just keep on doubting me, because I love that," he said.

 

In other news, the Browns have renewed interest in linebacker Ben Taylor and have a one-year offer on the table, according to his agent, Bob Lattinville.

 

Taylor also is considering a one-year offer from Green Bay and could make a decision today, Lattinville said.

 

"[Coach] Romeo Crennel and [defensive coordinator] Todd Grantham have told Ben they have him penciled in as a starter at inside linebacker," Lattinville said.

 

Lattinville said Taylor ideally would like to sign at least a two-year deal, "but we're still talking structure. It's still up in the air."

Now they just need to do the one on his tiny brain and he may actually take the field someday. :D

I had no idea about the Jan Arthroscopic knee surgery to go in and clean up scar tissue. That's actually a positive.

 

But I also hadn't heard about the Staph Infection to the same knee and how bad it had gotten in penetrating the joint.

 

Thanks for that find Randall. :D

Days after Kellen Winslow was seriously injured in a motorcycle crash, a review of the Wonderlic IQ exam given to the Cleveland Brown’s tight end at the 2004 NFL Draft Combine revealed that he glossed over a question that foretold his accident. Question # 13 on the test, which is used to quantify a prospect’s intelligence, read: “If a 6-foot, 4-inch, 240-pound man recklessly driving a motorcycle at 35 miles per hour without a helmet in a parking lot strikes a curb and is launched 16 feet in the air, how many millions of dollars will he piss away?”
