Cleveland Browns linebacker Christian Kirksey underwent surgery on Wednesday for a torn pectoral muscle.
The news was first reported by NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport:
#Browns LB Christian Kirksey recently had surgery to repair the chest injury that led to him being placed on Injured Reserve more than a week ago. While there was some initial thought that he could return, the surgery indicates he's done for the season.
