Browns Lose MLB Tank Carder For Remainder Season Due To Torn ACL

The Cleveland Browns won their second preseason game of 2017 Monday night at home but that victory over the New York Giants included them losing a key component of their defense for the remainder of the season.

According to Browns head coach Hue Jackson on Tuesday, middle linebacker Tank Carder will miss the entire 2017 season after tearing the anterior cruciate ligament in his right knee Monday night.

Carder was slated to be the Browns starter this season at middle linebacker and his injury will likely result in Joe Schobert replacing him.
