WR Terrelle Pryor Sr. set career highs in receptions (seven) and receiving yards (144). He also completed three passes for 35 yards and rushed for 21 yards with a touchdown. He became the first NFL player to register at least three passing attempts, three rushing attempts and three receptions in the same game since Billy Kilmer did it for San Francisco in 1964. Pryor has four career rushing touchdowns and recorded his first career 100-yard receiving game. He also is the first NFL player with 20 passing yards, 20 rushing yards and 20 receiving yards in the same game since WR Cecil Shorts (26 rush, 51 rec, 21 pass) accomplished the feat for Houston on Nov. 22, 2015. Pryor's 144 receiving yards were the most by a Brown since WR Josh Gordon totaled 151 at New England on Dec. 18, 2013. Pryor completed a 26-yard pass to TE Gary Barnidge on the team's second drive, marking his first completion since Dec. 29, 2013.

Making his NFL debut, rookie DB Briean Boddy-Calhoun recorded an interception that he returned 27 yards for a touchdown. He is the first player in Browns history record an INT-TD during his first NFL game. It was the Browns first INT-TD since LB Karlos Dansby on Nov. 20, 2015.

DB Jamar Taylor recorded an interception on the second play of the game. It was his first career interception. Taylor, who was selected by Miami in the second round of the draft in 2013, was acquired by the Browns this offseason via trade.

LB Corey Lemonier recorded three tackles, one sack, one forced fumble and one fumble recovery. It was his second career sack and first as a member of the Browns.

Rookie QB Cody Kessler made his NFL debut and completed 21 of 33 passes for 244 yards and zero interceptions. Kessler is the first rookie QB to start for the Browns since Connor Shaw on Dec. 28, 2014.
