It wasn’t quite a shutout, but the Browns still dominated the Detroit Lions in the final preseason game of the year, winning by a score of 35-17. They finished the preseason with a record of 3-1, and now it’s on to the regular season.

A field goal from 39 yards out by K Zane Gonzalez on the next drive made it a 10-0 game.
