Interesting Stats / Notes
- RB Duke Johnson - 10 catches away from tying for No. 10 on the Browns’ alltime receptions by a running back list with 150 (Dub Jones).
- DL Myles Garrett - With one sack, will record the second-best total (four) by a Brown in his first three career games. Will also be the first player in franchise history to reach the mark since Charles Buchanan in 1988 (4.5). Will become the first NFL player to register a sack in each of his first three career games since Barkevious Mingo in 2013. A sack would give him one in three consecutive games, making him the first Brown to do so since Desmond Bryant (Weeks 7-9 in 2015), the first Browns rookie to do so since Jabaal Sheard (Weeks 11-13 in 2011) and the first rookie No. 1 overall pick to do so since Mario Williams (Weeks 7-9 in 2006).
- OLB Joe Schobert - He is leading the team this season in tackles and is tied for fifth among all NFL players in tackles.
- CB Jason McCourty - An interception would tie his single-season career high of four. It would also make him the first Brown to register a pick in three consecutive games since Joe Haden did it in Weeks 11-13 in 2014.
