Browns DL Phil Taylor returns to the field after 10 month absence

For the first time in 10 months, Phil Taylor was on the football field for the Cleveland Browns.

In 11 total snaps with the first-team unit against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Taylor reminded the Browns coaching staff of how his massive frame can still play a critical role within the defense. Taylor was took on multiple blockers on the play Desmond Bryant collected his second sack.

Coach Pettine called it a productive night for big ole No. 98.

“It felt great to shake the cobwebs off,” the 335-pound Taylor said in the locker room Saturday in Tampa.
