Winslow to have MRI on shoulder
BEREA, Ohio — Cleveland Browns tight end Kellen Winslow will have an MRI on his right shoulder after injuring it in the closing minutes of Monday night’s win over the Buffalo Bills.
Winslow was hurt when he was tackled in front of Buffalo’s bench while making a 16-yard reception that set up Cleveland’s game-winning field goal. The five-year veteran, who has had numerous injuries during his career, was driven to the ground by Bills linebacker Paul Posluszny and came up wincing in pain.
Winslow briefly left the field but returned and was the intended receiver on an incompletion by quarterback Brady Quinn before Phil Dawson kicked a 56-yard field goal in Cleveland’s 29-27 win. Winslow finished with three catches for 40 yards.
“We’ll check him out and see if he’ll be able to do much this week,” Browns coach Romeo Crennel said.
Crennel said defensive tackle Shaun Smith will also have an MRI on a calf injury.
