The defense sold out to stop Judkins, and the rookie finished the night with just nine carries for 19 yards to go along with three receptions for negative two yards.<\/p>\n<p>In his absence, fellow rookie Dylan Sampson saw most of the work, although it&#8217;s difficult to say if this trend would continue in a more neutral game script. The Patriots blew the game open in the third quarter and forced the Browns into a pass-heavy offense. In total, Sampson recorded three carries for zero yards while adding five catches for 29 yards. Veteran Jerome Ford, meanwhile, finished the night with one reception for negative one yard and didn&#8217;t record a single carry.<\/p>\n<p>Prior to his injury, Quinshon Judkins had been one of the few bright spots on a Browns offense that largely cannot get out of their own way. While contract issues forced him to miss the first game of the season, the Ohio State product immediately earned the starting job, and he never looked back. Prior to the Patriots game, the rookie recorded 467 rushing yards and five touchdowns on 109 attempts while adding another nine receptions for 62 yards in the receiving game. The advanced metrics paint a similar picture, as his 77.3 PFF grade entering the contest was the ninth-best mark out of 54 eligible players.<\/p>\n<p><em>Main Photo: Bob DeChiara &#8211; Imagn Images<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Cleveland Browns star running back Quinshon Judkins exited Week 8&#8217;s battle against the New England Patriots with a shoulder injury.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2376,"featured_media":252486,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_lmt_disableupdate":"no","_lmt_disable":"","sfio_featured_image":false,"sfio_embed_code":"","_ef_editorial_meta_date_first-draft-date":"","_ef_editorial_meta_paragraph_assignment":"","_ef_editorial_meta_checkbox_needs-photo":"","_ef_editorial_meta_number_word-count":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[36,8,6431],"tags":[7809,32479],"class_list":["post-252480","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-nfl-news","category-browns","category-nfl-teams","tag-cleveland-browns-news","tag-quinshon-judkins"],"modified_by":"David Latham, Managing Editor","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/252480","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2376"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=252480"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/252480\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":252525,"href":"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/252480\/revisions\/252525"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/252486"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=252480"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=252480"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=252480"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
