BEREA, OH — The injury bug has claimed two more victims off the Browns roster. Cleveland announced Wednesday that cornerback E.J. Gaines and linebacker Christian Kirksey have been placed on the injured reserve, thus ending their seasons.
Gaines left Sunday’s loss to the Chiefs in the first quarter after suffering his second concussion in a month. The 2018 free-agent signee had missed the previous two games recovering from that first concussion before returning to the field this past weekend. His season comes to an end having played in six games, breaking up six passes and hauling in one interception.
