BEREA, Ohio (AP) — Jamie Gillan caught hundreds, maybe thousands of snaps during training camp and the preseason. He dropped the first one that counted last week. Gillan failed to catch a snap in the fourth quarter of the opener at Kansas City, and then made matters worse when he tried to run for a first down and was tackled in the Browns’ 33-29 loss to the Chiefs.

Priefer said Gillan was “devastated” by his mistake, one of three critical miscues by the Browns in the second half.
