Browns dwelling broken-down Skilled Bowl kicker Cody Parkey (quad) on injured reserve

Browns coach Kevin Stefanski became attentive to Cody Parkey’s quad injury aesthetic earlier than his crew’s preseason take over the Giants on Sunday. On Monday, the crew positioned the broken-down Skilled Bowl kicker on injured reserve. Parkey have to no longer ready to realize to the Browns’ active roster this season but he may perhaps signal with one other crew so long as he’s launched off injured reserve. 

Last season, the 29-year-dilapidated kicker made 19 of his 22 discipline goal attempts and 43 of his 47 level-after attempts. Whereas he did no longer try a single discipline goal of over 50 yards in 2020, Parkey is 8 of 10 on discipline targets of on the very least that distance over the course of his profession. In 2014, Parkey used to be chosen to the Skilled Bowl after hitting every of his four discipline goal attempts of on the very least 50 yards. He connected on 54-yard discipline targets in 2014 and in 2017. 

With Parkey out, three-year ragged Amble McLaughlin drilled a 49-yard discipline goal at some level of Sunday’s 17-13 take over the Giants. An undrafted rookie in 2019, the 25-year-dilapidated kicker has made 22 of his 28 discipline goal attempts and all but one of his 32 extra-level attempts in 15 standard season games. McLaughlin is 4 of 5 on kicks of on the very least 50 yards. He had a profession-long 52-yard kick as a member of the Jaguars final season. 

“He is combating,” Stefanski stated of McLaughlin on Sunday, by ESPN’s Jake Trotter. “He is doing a nice job. Ask him to withhold combating.”
