Bengals provide bad news on Chase Brown injury
Cincinnati Bengals rookie running back Chase Brown won’t be able to go in Week 8 against the San Francisco 49ers because of a new hamstring injury.
On the same day coaches suggested Brown and others could be in line for more work behind Joe Mixon coming out of the bye, the rookie fifth-rounder pulled his hamstring in practice.
The next day, Brown was just one of two Bengals listed as out against the 49ers.
According to The Athletic’s Paul Dehner Jr., Bengals head coach Zac Taylor said that Brown had looked great in practice this week before the mishap.
Brown had appeared in five games before the injury, carrying the ball just twice and catching all three of his targets for seven yards.
While the Bengals could turn to Trayveon Williams and Chris Evans behind Mixon, it also raises the question of whether this might encourage the team to make a move before the upcoming trade deadline, too, given how cheap it usually is to acquire productive rotational runners.
The last time the Browns played in Seattle was 2015, and Cleveland’s quarterback was none other than Johnny Manziel.
A 30-13 win by the Seahawks was Manziel’s second-to-last start for the Browns.
Seattle has been unkind to Cleveland over the years. Although the teams don’t play often, the Browns haven’t won in Seattle since 1989. In that 17-7 game, the Browns touchdowns came on a Tim Manoa run and a Bernie Kosar pass to Lawyer Tillman. And Matt Bahr knocked in a field goal.
Oh, nostalgia.
In the all-time series, the Seahawks have won 13 of the 19 matchups between the teams.
The last time the Browns won in Seattle, the Seahawks wore silver and royal blue. They’ll be wearing their throwback uniforms this week. Could the outcome be the same as in 1989 for the Browns? Here’s what you need to know about how to watch the game:
