Cleveland Browns Rumors and News: Josh McCown Suffers Potential Season Ending Injury In Loss To Baltimore Ravens, Austin Davis Starts Over Johnny Manziel?

Dec 01, 2015 02:22 PM EST

In a heartbreaking game for Browns fans they may have lost more than the contest. Josh McCown looks to have some type collarbone injury and from the sound of things it seems as if it is a season ending injury.

McCown likely broke his collarbone in the Browns loss on Monday night as he was seen with his arm in a sling following the contest. In a somewhat surprising turn of events Browns head coach Mike Pettine put in backup quarterback Austin Davis instead of Johnny Manziel. Davis would finish out the game playing fairly well for a player who was a third string backup for most of the season.

McCown has been extremely injury prone this season as he has missed four games already thanks to a concussion and shoulder and rib injuries. With McCown potentially out of the picture for the Browns lost season, Davis is looking to be the answer for the remaining games.

Davis completed 7 out of 10 passes for 77 yards and a touchdown. A couple of seasons ago no Browns fan could have possibly thought that the Browns would be debating whether to start their first round quarterback Johnny Manziel or a perennial backup in Austin Davis. Manziel's recent behavior has forced Pettine's hand, now Davis will look to finish out the season strong.
