Kellen Winslow Jr. underwent arthroscopic knee surgery

February 1st, 2007 · No Comments

 Browns tight end Kellen Winslow Jr. underwent arthroscopic knee surgery on his reconstructed right knee Tuesday at the Cleveland Clinic to remove scar tissue and repair cartilage damage.

The surgery was performed by Dr. Anthony Miniaci, head team physician. Winslow has been released from the hospital and is expected to make a full recovery. It’s the second time he’s had a clean-up on the knee, the first coming last January.

Winslow suffered a torn anterior cruciate ligament and damaged kneecap in his motorcycle accident in May of 2005 and had reconstructive surgery shortly thereafter. He also suffered a staph infection following the surgery. The knee bothered him all last season - and he practiced sparingly during the week - but still managed to play every game and tie Ozzie Newsome’s team record with 89 receptions.
