Lions vs. Browns final score: Detroit ends pathetic preseason with loss to Cleveland, 35-17

The Lions lost their final preseason game in another ugly game, dropping their preseason record to 1-3. Here’s a recap:

The Browns got the ball first and didn’t take any time driving downfield against the Lions’ second string defense. They got a big play out of tight end Devon Cajuste (of “Hard Knocks” fame) after Rolan Milligan fell down in coverage and was injured on the play. Just a few plays later, Nick Chubb would convert a fourth-and-1 for a 3-yard touchdown run.

With Jake Rudock as the starting quarterback, the Lions offense quickly went three-and-out.
