Browns S Juan Thornhill a game-time scratch, Ronnie Hickman will start vs. Jaguars
Just as the game between the Cleveland Browns and Jacksonville Jaguars get set for kickoff, safety Juan Thornhill has been scratched from the game with a calf injury. Thornhill entered the game with a questionable game designation with an injury that has plagued him all season. Undrafted rookie safety Ronnie Hickman will start in his place.
This is the second member of the Cleveland secondary to be ruled out in this game as cornerback Denzel Ward will also miss his third straight game as well. Veteran safety Rodney McLeod has also been ruled out for the season with a bicep injury.
With insurmountable injuries on both sidelines, the Browns and Jaguars are both limping to the finish line in this game. Can the Browns continue to fight through these injuries and find their way to their eighth win on the season?
If they do, they will hold a firm grasp on a playoff spot.
