Jim Donovan under weather and won't be radio announcer for Browns vs. Patriots

Browns games have sounded different this season on the team's radio network.

The Browns (2-3) announced play-by-play radio announcer Jim Donovan is feeling under the weather and won't be in the booth when they host the Patriots (2-3). Donovan will be replaced by Jeff Phelps, who works for Fox Sports Ohio and 92.3 The Fan.

This is the first Browns season in more than three decades that legendary left tackle Doug Dieken hasn't spent as the team's radio color analyst.
