Browns seek big plays from special teams after rough opener
Special teams scramble after two mishandled kicks in the season opener against Seattle. Preston Brown, a recent free agent addition, averaged 15 yards on five kickoff returns against the Rams, clocked at 4.3 seconds in the 40. Rutigliano noted Davis may see limited time scores. Kicker Matt Bahr is 1 for 3 on field goals, with the coach saying he may be pressing but has a league mentality. Denver, their next foe, hasn’t improved kickoff and punt returns amid a Bears loss. Injury notes list Boyce Green and Paul Farren as probable for Sunday. Green’s ankle injury limits two-back options with Mike Pruitt.
