The more I am reading, the more I keep hearing career threatening injuries. Dang, why couldn't this guy not be playing for my Browns so I could fully enjoy this. But it will go down as another story of how snake bitten the Browns are.
Here is the run down; Broken Ribs, Punctured Lung, Broken Collarbone, Separated Shoulder and Severe Knee Injury that includes multiple ligaments being damaged.

Found this on Profootballtalk.com
Quote:
As a general matter, Winslow has breached Paragraph 3 of his contract, which prevents him from "engag[ing] in any activity other than football which may involve a significant risk of personal injury."
And this breach could have significant consequences. Winslow's motorcycling allows the team (if it so chooses) to recover $5 million of his initial signing bonus and the full $4.4125 million of his option bonus triggered at the outset of the 2005 league year, $2.4125 million of which won't actually be paid to Winslow until July 15.
So the total potential price tag on Winslow's deliberate failure to comply with the terms of his contract is a whopping $9.4125 million.
Under the contract, Winslow becomes potentially responsible to pay back the bonus money due to "injury as a result of a breach of Paragraph 3 of the Contract" or "as a result of participation in hazardous activities which involve a significant risk of personal injury and are non-football in nature, including but not limited to skydiving, hang gliding, mountain climbing, auto racing, motorcycling, scuba diving, or skiing."
