Pinkston reports that Pinkston to be released from hospital today

Jason Pinkston and his blood clot saga has been pretty easy to follow thanks to the big man keeping everyone updated on Twitter. It’s taken what could have and should have been a very scary scenario and cut the tension for fans of Pinkston. He spent time debunking misconceptions about his ailment early on to kill any kind of conspiracy about him being mistreated. Since then, Browns fans have been up and down with him as he desperately wanted to get out of the hospital. Well, today is apparently the day.

Pinkston will likely not play the rest of the year after dealing with the blood clots. The 25-year-old has played pretty well for the Browns after being thrust into service with the injury to Eric Steinbach a year ago. Here’s hoping the big man has a speedy recovery and is ready to go next season.
