Cleveland Browns running back D'Onta Foreman is being released from the hospital after suffering an injury during a training camp practice at The Greenbrier in White Sulpher Springs, West Virginia, the team announced Thursday.
"X-rays and CT scans are negative," the team said of Foreman. "He's expected to be released from Carilion Roanoke Memorial Hospital this afternoon and will return to the team."
Foreman suffered the injury during a special teams session, according to the club. He was immobilized on the field before being transported via ambulance and helicopter to a local medical facility.
"During practice today, Browns RB D'Onta Foreman sustained a direct blow to the head that resulted in neck pain," the team said. "The Browns athletic training staff deployed their standard emergency action procedures to immobilize Foreman. He was taken to an ambulance and is being transported via helicopter to a Medical Center in Roanoke, VA to undergo further medical evaluation. Foreman had movement in all his extremities. Updates will be provided as more information is received."
Browns beat reporter Mary Kay Cabot added that Foreman is "in good spirits" after the scary injury, per a source.
Cleveland signed Foreman this offseason to bolster the backfield as Nick Chubb makes his way back from last year's season-ending injury. The 28-year-old Foreman is entering his seventh season after stints in Houston, Tennessee, Carolina and Chicago.
