The Cleveland Browns have started off the 2020 NFL season in typical Browns fashion, getting blown out by the Baltimore Ravens 38-6.
One of the many weak links in Cleveland’s play on Sunday was kicker Austin Seibert, who missed a field goal and an extra-point attempt in the game.
The Browns have apparently seen enough and have decided to waive Seibert, replacing him with Cody Parker, who will kick for the team on Thursday night when they play the Cincinnati Bengals.
The Bengals had their share of kicking woes on Sunday as well, with kicker Randy Bullock missing a 31-yard field goal attempt that could have tied the game and sent it into overtime. Instead, the Bengals fell to the Los Angeles Chargers 16-3.
However, kicking was probably the least of Cleveland’s problems on Sunday. Their biggest was that they couldn’t stop the Baltimore offense. Cleveland looked as hapless as ever, with reigning league MVP, Baltimore quarterback Lamar Jackson, shredding the Cleveland secondary for 275 passing yards and three touchdowns.
Things didn’t look much better on offense either. Browns QB Baker Mayfield threw an interception on the opening series and the Browns went on to have two more turnovers in the blowout Week 1 loss.
