Browns quarterback Josh McCown will miss the rest of the season after fracturing his collarbone in a 33-27 loss to Baltimore on Monday night.

Coach Mike Pettine would not discuss whether Austin Davis or Johnny Manziel will start Sunday against Cincinnati. He steadfastly refused to comment on the quarterbacks.

"I don't want to head down this slope," he said. "I'm going to reserve talk for the quarterback stuff until [Wednesday]."

Pettine said he will decide who starts without influence from the front office.


Arizona's Johnson Suffers Fracture In Left Leg

Arizona Cardinals running back Chris Johnson's next game could be the Super Bowl.

Arizona placed Johnson on injured reserve with a designation to return on Tuesday, two days after he suffered a fractured tibia in his left leg in a 19-13 win on the road against the San Francisco 49ers.

Johnson, 30, will be eligible to play in eight weeks, just as the Cardinals would begin preparations for Super Bowl 50, if they were to qualify. He'll be eligible to return to practice in six weeks.

Johnson suffered the injury in the third quarter at Levi's Stadium.

He was fourth in the NFL in rushing with 814 yards and was on pace for his first 1,000-yard season since 2013.
