New NFL kickoff rule leaves Browns wanting more after preseason opener vs. Packers

CLEVELAND — The new NFL kickoff rule left the coach Kevin Stefanski and the Browns wanting more after their preseason opener Saturday evening against the Green Bay Packers.

With starting kicker Dustin Hopkins sitting out, Cade York kicked off three times for the Browns. The first two resulted in touchbacks and thereby gave the Packers possession at their 30-yard line.

After the Browns' 23-10 loss, Stefanski chuckled while he explained the team's plans did not include York kicking the ball into the end zone twice.
