Browns Beat Packers on Szmyt’s 55-Yard Walk-Off, 13-10

Defense, special teams plus a redeemed rookie kicker lifted Cleveland out of an eight-game skid despite thin tackle depth.

Overview

  • Andre Szmyt, who missed kicks in Week 1, drilled a 55-yard field goal as time expired to seal Cleveland’s first win of the season.
  • Cleveland scored all 13 points in the final minutes, starting with a 35-yard Szmyt field goal before Grant Delpit’s interception set up a Quinshon Judkins 1-yard touchdown.
  • Shelby Harris blocked Brandon McManus’ 43-yard attempt in the closing seconds and Greg Newsome II recovered, preserving the chance for the game-winner.
  • The Browns’ defense kept them alive with multiple sacks and a key takeaway, while Joe Flacco finished 21-of-36 for 142 yards as the offense struggled for most of the day.
  • Right tackle Dawand (Dewand) Jones exited early with a knee injury and Jack Conklin was out, as Green Bay left with protection and penalty issues and fell to 2-1.
