LeBron James gives the Browns’ Joe Flacco and Amari Cooper some love

LeBron James Joe Flacco Amari Cooper Browns (Organization) Coop (Organization)

In the NFL this season, one big surprise has been the Cleveland Browns. Despite losing star running back Nick Chubb and starting quarterback Deshaun Watson for the year to injuries, they have continued to find ways to win games.

On Sunday, they were at it again, defeating a Houston Texans team that is fighting for a wild-card playoff spot in the AFC. Joe Flacco, the 38-yard-old quarterback who was signed recently after sitting to that point this season, threw for 368 yards and three touchdowns, while wide receiver Amari Cooper had 11 catches for a team-record 265 yards and two touchdowns.

LeBron James, an admitted Browns fan, showered both players with love on social media (h/t Lakers Daily).

The Browns are 10-5, which puts them on the doorstep of only their third playoff appearance since they were reinstated as a franchise for the 1999 season.
