Entering Week 14, Browns tight end David Njoku had two touchdown receptions in 2023.
He’s now doubled that total in the first half of Sunday’s game against Jacksonville.
After making a 34-yard reception to open the scoring, Njoku put together a 34-yard catch and run for a touchdown to give Cleveland a 14-0 lead.
Quarterback Joe Flacco found Njoku open on the right side and put it on him 8 yards in front of the line of scrimmage. Njoku did the rest, capping a four-play, 72-yard drive.
Cleveland’s offense got off to a strong start with a touchdown on its first drive. But the club had stalled with three three-and-outs before its latest possession. Flacco got things opened up with a 17-yard pass to Amari Coper on the first play of the drive and the drive went well from there.
It’s the first multi-touchdown game of Njoku’s career.
