The Cleveland Browns are not waving the white flag against the Kansas City Chiefs as running back Jerome Ford broke an explosive run to get them on the board.
With just over three minutes left in the third quarter, Ford broke free for a 62-yard touchdown run to put Cleveland on the board in Week 15. Recently elevated kicker Riley Patterson converted the extra point, cutting the Chiefs’ lead to 21-7.
