Browns Linebacker Out for Season

He left Sunday's game with a shoulder injury and did not return.

Now, Cleveland Browns' linebacker Jacob Phillips has been diagnosed with a season-ending pectoral injury. He suffered the injury in the Browns' 23-20 loss to the Baltimore Ravens.

It's a tough blow to the Browns front seven which has already been struggling to defend the run. If Phillips is indeed out for the rest of the season, as is likely, linebacker Deion Jones will take on a much heavier role. 

The twenty-three-year-old has 46 total tackles (29 solo) and two sacks through seven games this season. He is a former 3rd-round pick by the Browns in the 2020 NFL Draft.
