The Cleveland Browns have dealt with injury after injury all of the 2023 NFL season. That continued in Week 16 versus the Houston Texans with a number of players ruled out during the game.
The highlight for the Browns was the connection between QB Joe Flacco and WR Amari Cooper.
It started early with Flacco hitting Cooper on a deep pass for 53 yards on the first play after the opening kickoff. The veteran duo connected on a 75-yard touchdown pass in the second quarter and added his third touchdown reception in the third quarter.
