The Cleveland Browns first injury list was a concerning one on Thursday with a myriad of defensive tackles joining safety Juan Thornhill not participating. Thornhill missed the Browns Week 1 victory over the Cincinnati Bengals with a calf injury that popped up in the middle of the week.
Brought over from the Kansas City Chiefs as a free agent, Thornhill replaced John Johnson III who never really caught on in Cleveland. New defensive coordinator Jim Schwartz wanted his new safety for his leadership and ability as a split safety alongside Grant Delpit.
