Browns QB Tyrod Taylor dislocates pinky but isn't expected to miss time

CLEVELAND -- The Browns escaped a preseason quarterback swap.

Tyrod Taylor isn't expected to miss any time -- and is still in line to start the Sept. 9 season opener against Pittsburgh -- after dislocating his left pinky and bruising his hand in Thursday's 5-0 win over Philadelphia.

Taylor's injury initially appeared serious after he awkwardly landed on his non-throwing hand and wrist while bracing his fall after firing an incomplete pass on fourth-and-goal.

Taylor immediately grabbed his hand and ran to the sideline before being taken to the locker room for treatment and evaluation.
