It’s unclear what the injury was or how it happened. But Cleveland suffered the injury on the very last play of practice, per ESPN’s Jeff Legwold. Coach Nathaniel Hackett said Cleveland would be evaluated and added “he’s been doing a damn good job and hope it’s nothing serious.”

Cleveland was drafted in the seventh round of the 2020 NFL draft out of Florida by Denver and has been working toward making the squad with an already-stout receiving corps. He’s never started a game in his first two NFL seasons and appeared in just seven games this past year.

He didn’t catch a single pass in 2021 and caught six during his rookie year.
