CINCINNATI -- The Cleveland Browns lost rookie quarterback Cody Kessler to a concussion with 7 minutes, 27 seconds left in the first half of Sundays 31-17 loss to the Bengals.Rookie Kevin Hogan took over for Kessler. Earlier in the game, Hogan became the sixth quarterback in seven games this season to take a snap for the Browns when he ran three read-option plays.But when Kessler was sidelined, the game belonged to Hogan. He followed Robert Griffin III, Josh McCown, Terrelle Pryor, Charlie Whitehurst and Kessler at quarterback.Hogan finished 12-of-24 for 100 yards and two interceptions in the Browns loss, which kept Cleveland (0-7) winless this season.These quarterbacks only have so many these hits in their body, you know? Pretty soon, guys dont get up all the time, and thats whats been happening. Its unfortunate. Its just been happening way too much, Browns coach Hue Jackson said.?Hogan spent the first five games of the season on the practice squad. He was promoted to the active roster Oct. 11 after Whitehurst was injured.He battled as hard as he could for a guy that, again, doesnt get a ton of reps, but enough to do what he did, Jackson said.Jackson added that theres a chance McCown will be able to play next Sunday against the New York Jets.Well see. Again, well evaluate everything on Monday and see where he is and go from there, he said.Kessler had played better than expected in starting five games; he was 9-for-11 against Cincinnati before he was hurt.Hogan said, there were some plays Id like back, but overall I felt very comfortable out there, and confident.Hogan said he hopes Kessler makes a speedy recovery but he is going to do everything I can to make sure Im ready.According to the Elias Sports Bureau, the Browns are the first team since 1987 (Eagles, Patriots and Broncos) to have at least six different players throw at least one pass in the first seven games of a season.That was during the strike season that featured replacement players.The last team to use six quarterbacks in the first seven games in a non-strike season was the 1976 Tampa Bay Buccaneers, who went 0-14 in their first NFL season.

ARLINGTON, Texas -- A season that saw Tampa Bay Rays pitcher Matt Andriese shuttle between the rotation and the bullpen closed with him making a statement about being a starter when 2017 begins.Andriese (8-8) allowed three runs in 5 1/3 innings as the Rays lost to the Texas Rangers 3-1 on Friday night. The victory earned Texas home-field advantage throughout the postseason.Yu Darvish (7-5) allowed one run, three hits and a walk while striking out 12. His 28th career game of double-digit strikeouts is the second-most in a pitchers first 100 major league starts, topped only by Dwight Gooden (31).Andriese gave up seven hits, including solo home runs to Carlos Beltran and Rougned Odor. He began the season as a starter and went 5-0 with a 2.28 ERA. He was moved to the bullpen in mid-June to open a spot in the rotation when Blake Snell was recalled from Triple-A Durham. When Matt Moore was traded to San Francisco at the non-waiver trade deadline, Andriese returned to the rotation.It was definitely a grind being put in the bullpen and then trying to come back and finish the year in the rotation, Andriese said. But I think I proved to some people that with my last four or five starts I do belong in the rotation. I know I can give our team a chance to win if given the opportunity day in and day out.Were all pleased with how Matt finished the season and what he brought to us this year, manager Kevin Cash said. I thought he handled (moving to and from the bullpen) pretty well. Weve got big hopes for Matt Andriese because we know he can really be a big anchor in our staff.The home run to Beltran came on a fastball, the one to Odor on a changeup that was left out over the plate.That was probably the one mistake that hed like to have back, Cash said.Thats a pretty tough lineup over there, Andriese said. It wasnt a bad outing by any means, kind of a decent one to go into the offseason with.Darvish went into the game avveraging 11.dddddddddddd45 strikeouts per nine innings this season, best in the league. In his final four starts of the season, he fanned 38 in 24 2/3 innings.He looks a little bit more electric to me, said Evan Longoria, who had two of the Rays four hits. His ball is moving in different directions.MILESTONES FOR LONGORIALongorias two doubles give him career highs of 171 hits and 80 extra-base hits this season.Ive felt for the most part as comfortable as Ive ever felt this year at the plate, he said after driving in the Rays lone run. I guess that helps.HOMECOMING FOR WILSONBobby Wilson was selected off waivers from Tampa Bay by Texas last season on July 31 and spent the rest of the season in Arlington.
