The Cleveland Browns had a real chance to get to 3-2 on the season, but two missed kicks by rookie kicker Cade York made a difference in the outcome. In other Browns news, they continue to have his back as he works back to make an impact against the New England Patriots this week.
Speaking to the media today, special teams coordinator Mike Priefer spoke highly of the fortitude of York:
“He’ll be just fine. He’s a very talented young man, as you guys know. He has stood up big for us before and he will again in the future. I will never use an excuse of youth because he is young, but when you go through something like this as a young player I think it shows his intestinal fortitude coming back from this and seeing how he reacts. I have a lot of confidence in Cade York.”
The Browns will be patient with the kicker they used quite a high draft pick on as he adjusts to kicking in the Lake Erie wind. But it sounds like York has been doing all the right things this week to get his mind and leg back into the right spot.
