Cleveland, OH (Sports Network) – Cleveland Browns quarterback Brian Hoyer left Thursday’s game against the Buffalo Bills with a right knee injury.<\/p>\n
The former third-string quarterback and native of suburban Cleveland, Hoyer, who filled in for an injured Brandon Weeden and engineered back- to-back victories, exited early in the first quarter with a knee injury.<\/p>\n
Hoyer was hurt while sliding at the end of a scramble. He broke free along the right sideline and picked up a first down, but was hit from behind by Bills linebacker Kiko Alonso and his legs bent awkwardly underneath him.<\/p>\n
Hoyer is scheduled to undergo an MRI Friday.<\/p>\n
“I don’t want to be premature,” Browns head coach Rob Chudzinski said. “Let’s find out what the status is and see what the MRI says. Anytime you lose a guy who’s done what he’s done, it’s disappointing. But let’s see what the MRI says.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
