When Will Browns-Buccaneers Game Resume After Delay?

The Cleveland Browns were just minutes away from a season-opening win against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers when a lightning storm intervened on Sunday. With a 23-19 lead, the game was halted as players sought safety. Both teams are now vying for the lead, with the Buccaneers needing a touchdown and the Browns a field goal to secure victory.

There's currently no confirmed time for the game to resume, but the NFL's weather rules stipulate a 30-minute wait after the latest nearby lightning strike before players can return to the field. If another lightning strike occurs, the delay could potentially extend indefinitely. Browns quarterback Deshawn Watson, who has been serving as the team's starter this season, would have a historic opportunity to secure his first win after facing a boisterous home crowd.
