Cody Kessler suffers chest, rib injuries in Browns' loss

The Cleveland Browns are turning to yet another quarterback on this young season.

Rookie starter Cody Kessler went to the locker room early in the second quarter of Sunday's game after a disastrous play where he threw the ball backward and was planted into the ground by Patriots linebacker Dont'a Hightower. The ball went out the side of the end zone for a safety to give New England an early nine-point lead in a game they went on to win by a score of 33-13.

Kessler was quickly announced as questionable to return to the game with chest and rib injuries, and the team later ruled him out.
