Browns' Josh McCown done for season with broken collarbone
McCown broke his collarbone in Monday night's last-second loss to Baltimore, an injury that will cost him the final five games this season and re-open more quarterback chaos in Cleveland.
With the Browns in a short week before facing Cincinnati, coach Mike Pettine still hasn't decided if he'll re-insert Johnny Manziel, recently benched for off-field antics, into the starting lineup or stick with Austin Davis, who replaced an injured McCown in the fourth quarter.
The 36-year-old McCown, who sustained a concussion on the Browns' opening drive this season and missed two games with badly injured ribs, kept playing against the Ravens despite taking a hard hit in the second half.
Josh means a lot to this team, whether it's in the locker room, practice field, game day, just the positive energy that he exuded, the leadership.
Pettine said CB Justin Gilbert is in the NFL's concussion protocol after sustaining a head injury while returning a kickoff against the Ravens. ...
Despite some incriminating photos, Pettine said the coach's game tape does not show the Ravens lined offside on the blocked field goal.
