Browns defense has big day from Carson Schwesinger, but yields two late TDs
The Browns’ defense gave up two late touchdowns.
Cleveland Browns' defense showcased an exceptional performance in their Week 9 game against the New Orleans Saints, despite ultimately yielding two late touchdowns. The defense, led by star linebacker Carson Schwesinger, was instrumental in pressuring the Saints' quarterback, resulting in two sacks and a fumble recovery. Carson Schwesinger, who had struggled in the previous game, returned and registered a career-high 15 tackles, contributing to both of his sacks.
His outstanding performance earned him a PFF grade of 90.8, the highest among the Browns' defenders.
The defensive line, however, struggled with run defense, allowing New Orleans a significant number of rushing attempts. Safety Grant Delpit, the team's worst graded defender by PFF earlier in the season, faced continued criticism. His play, however, was not the only area of concern, as the defense also conceded two late touchdowns in the final minutes and overtime.
