Jameis Winston gave Browns tight end a chance to make a play
The Cleveland Browns gave away the ball late in the second quarter with many wondering if the meltdown was starting against the Baltimore Ravens. Instead, the Browns took the ball after half and drove down the field with an eight-play, 70-yard drive.
The team had three scoring drives but struggled to finish in the redzone. To start the third quarter, they didn’t need to even get inside the 20.
QB Jameis Winston, in his first start for Cleveland, gave TE David Njoku a chance to make a play on the ball, with the Ravens defender’s back turned, and his tight end did the rest on National Tight Ends Day:

At the end of that possession, Winston had completed 15 of 21 passes for 176 yards and that touchdown. Njoku had three receptions for 50 yards while WR Elijah Moore led the team with four receptions and 58 yards.
As Baltimore takes over, Cleveland leads 13-10 with 10 minutes left in the third quarter.
