Marquise Goodwin didn't allow himself to consider not playing football again. Cleveland's wide receiver returned to practice Tuesday after being sidelined since the start of training camp with blood clots in his legs and lungs.
Goodwin returned and practiced Tuesday with the Browns for the first time in months after dealing with a medical condition he described as “more alarming than scary.”
“I’m just more grateful,” he said. “I think my perspective has changed in that sense. Just more grateful for life, more grateful for opportunity, because it could have very well ended. It could have been my last play in minicamp, so I’m glad just to be back on the field for real.” And while he’s brought that skill set, Goodwin, a member of the 2012 U.S. Olympic track team, also spent part of his time this summer staying in shape while serving as a mentor to Browns rookie receiver Cedric Tillman.“I’m naturally a big brother,” he said. “I’m the oldest of 12 kids, so it’s like I’ll be doing myself a disservice if I didn’t say something to him that I saw that would make him better. I just try to embrace any guy that is willing to listen.
Goodwin stayed with the Browns during his recovery, in part so the team’s medical staff could closely monitor him. Considering that he couldn’t practice, it would have been understandable if Goodwin had taken some time off.He worked as hard as ever so he’d be ready the moment he was cleared medically to play.
