Better late than never: Jerome Ford finds the endzone on 62-yard rush

The Cleveland Browns are not waving the white flag against the Kansas City Chiefs as running back Jerome Ford broke an explosive run to get them on the board.

With just over three minutes left in the third quarter, Ford broke free for a 62-yard touchdown run to put Cleveland on the board in Week 15. Recently elevated kicker Riley Patterson converted the extra point, cutting the Chiefs’ lead to 21-7.

The Browns have totaled 174 yards of offense but find themselves trailing due to four turnovers. Quarterback Jameis Winston has completed 11 of 18 passes for 96 yards but has thrown two interceptions and lost a fumble. Additionally, punt returner James Proche lost a fumble that directly led to Kansas City points.

Despite the struggles, Jerry Jeudy continues to be a bright spot in an otherwise difficult season. He’s caught seven of eight targets for a game-high 81 yards, surpassing 1,000 receiving yards in a season for the first time in his career. On the ground, Ford has carried five times for 68 yards and a touchdown, while Nick Chubb has added nine carries for 41 yards.
