Browns special teams coordinator Byron Storer said he is preparing for Sunday’s game against the Ravens as if WR KC Concepcion Jr. won’t be available, the Akron Beacon Journal’s Tony Grossi reported Thursday. The comment was notable because Storer and the coordinators do not typically discuss player availability, but it appears to reflect preparedness rather than an indication of Concepcion’s status. The rookie practiced on Wednesday and again on Thursday as he works through the concussion protocol.
