Brady Quinn has a small fracture on the tip of the index finger of his throwing hand, Browns coach Romeo Crennel revealed Thursday morning. The injury will not prevent Quinn from starting against the Texans on Sunday in Cleveland Browns Stadium.

Quinn was injured Monday night in Buffalo when he banged his right hand on the helmet of one of the Bills while following through on a pass. He experienced initial soreness, but continued playing.

Players had Tuesday off. Quinn experienced discomfort in practice Wednesday. Afterward, the hand was X-rayed and then on Thursday morning a hand specialist from The Cleveland Clinic examined Quinn's finger and discovered the fracture.

"I banged up my finger in the first quarter and hit it again in the second quarter," Quinn said...

Cleveland Browns general manager Phil Savage has apologized to a fan for sending a profane e-mail following Monday night's game against the Buffalo Bills. Savage used an expletive in his response to the fan, who criticized the GM in several e-mail exchanges. "It happened after the game," Savage in an e-mail to The Associated Press.

Brady Quinn got his first NFL win as a starter almost single-handedly. Quinn broke his right index finger during the first half of Monday night's game against the Buffalo Bills, but Cleveland's new starting quarterback stayed in and led the Browns to a 29-27 victory. Despite the injury, Quinn will try to play Sunday when the Browns host the Houston Texans.

Inches from infamy, the only thing that stopped the Cleveland Browns from making unwanted history was another miss off the foot of a Buffalo kicker. In jeopardy of becoming the first NFL team to blow leads of at least 13 points in three consecutive games, the Browns survived with a 29-27 win on Monday night when Bills kicker Rian Lindell pushed a 47-yard field goal to the right -- a hauntingly...

Phil Dawson wasn't about to quit during Cleveland's latest fourth-quarter meltdown. Turned out, neither did the rest of the Browns. With a confident nod to coach Romeo Crennel, Dawson went out and calmly hit a career-long 56-yard field goal with 1:39 left that sent Cleveland to a 29-27 win over the Buffalo Bills on Monday night Dawson's fifth field goal of the game capped a wild finish.

Cleveland Browns coach Romeo Crennel says he felt insulted by comments by some of his players that teammates quit in last week's loss to Denver. After the Broncos scored 21 points in the fourth quarter for a 34-30 win on Thursday, Browns running back Jamal Lewis accused some unnamed players of quitting.

Back from a rare, football-free weekend, the Cleveland Browns resumed a season that has faded from promising to problematic. Their record says they're losers, and upon returning, they had to answer charges that they're quitters, too. Following Thursday night's demoralizing loss to Denver, running back Jamal Lewis accused some unnamed teammates of giving up.
