Ward is in the middle of his fourth season with the Browns. The interception was his first of the 2021 season. He came into the game against Cincinnati with 24 tackles, two QB hits, a half-sack and three passes defended.
He hasn’t had more than two interceptions in a season since he had three in his rookie year in 2018. He made the Pro Bowl that year but hasn’t been back since.
