It was the kind of game-changing play that should have been enough for the Browns. Instead, they leave Philadelphia with a 20-16 loss, even after Myles Garrett blocked a kick that led to a touchdown.
Cleveland Browns defensive end Myles Garrett blocks a field goal attempt by Philadelphia Eagles place kicker Jake Elliott in the first half of play. The block was recovered by Cleveland Browns safety Rodney McLeod Jr. and returned for a touchdown.
It’s why he provided the spark the Browns needed — but one that ultimately couldn’t end their now-four-game losing streak. Garrett did indeed get that back leg over, as his right hand reached up and he pawed the ball down out of mid-air for the third blocked kick of his career.The safety scooped up the ball at the 50-yard line, and returned it for the touchdown, doing a forward somersault into the end zone.
It was a banner moment for McLeod, who also returned a fumble for a touchdown in a Week 4 loss at the Las Vegas Raiders. . The Cleveland defense allowed three first downs during the Eagles' final possession, which began with 3:54 remaining. Philly was able to kneel out the clock.
