Browns WR Jarvis Landry Reveals He May Require Offseason Hip Surgery
By Sean Facey
Jarvis Landry has had a quality year for the Cleveland Browns, even earning a trip to the 2019 Pro Bowl. But he has also been nursing a hip injury for the majority of the season, which has kept him limited in practice throughout the year.
The star wide receiver revealed to Mary Kay Cabot that he may end up needing surgery in the offseason in order to get right again.

His surface stats don't seem to give any suggestion that the hip injury has been bothering him in-game, though. In 2019, Landry has hauled in 74 catches for 1,018 receiving yards and five touchdowns.
The former LSU star has yet to reveal what exactly the injury is and what's bothering him, but remains hopeful that surgery won't be necessary.

Landry hasn't missed a single game in the NFL ever since the Miami Dolphins drafted him late in the second round in 2014.
While the Browns' season is all but over, it looks as if Landry is going to continue putting his body on the line and play out the rest of the year before reassessing his health in the offseason and opting whether or not to undergo surgery.
