The Facts:
Winslow will need reconstructive surgery to repair a torn anterior cruciate ligament in his right knee as a result of his motorcycle accident and will miss the entire 2005 season, according to a source with knowledge of the situation. The Browns and the Winslow family learned the extent of damage to the knee on Wednesday, but neither the team nor the family would comment. The source said the result of a magnetic resonance imaging test on the knee performed on Tuesday showed "what everyone feared."
