Browns cornerback Daven Holly sustained what is being referred to as a "serious" knee injury at practice Tuesday. While the coaches said Holly was competing with Brandon McDonald for the second starting cornerback spot, I imagine it was his job to lose in camp.

This is the one position where the Browns can't afford to get hit at. More on this as it develops, but hopefully nothing is torn.

UPDATE: Well, shucks. Holly is out for the year. Not good. The spin: Hey, if you like high-scoring games, watch the Browns this year!

There's a good bit of information in the link directly above this paragraph. A few things of note:

-The injury to Holly took place in a collision with Braylon Edwards, who is now suffering from a hip pointer as a result.

-Rex Hadnot has assumed Ryan Tucker's starting spot at right guard and backup Isaac Sowells will shift from guard to tackle to be the third stringer (a spot held by Tucker).

Not much going on lately with the Cleveland Browns. This is probably the slowest time of the year for football news.

However, that doesn't mean the Browns are safe from injuries. You probably know by now about starting right guard Ryan Tucker breaking his right hip last week. That just sounds painful. It will cost him two months, during which he's been told by doctors to not sit down too much. Seriously, I know it's a physical sport, what on a football field during practice leads to a broken hip? It's not like Ted Washington is still around.

Anyway, this shouldn't be much of a concern for the team. Tucker was a nice little bonus last season moving over from tackle. The job will now go to either Seth McKinney or Rex Hadnot, who was signed in the offseason. I loved the signing of Hadnot. He was arguably the best player on the Dolphins' offense last season, and it was a surprising to see him come here to be a backup.

Notes…
Former star cornerback Hanford Dixon was busted Saturday for drunk driving. It's his second drunk driving charge since October. Dixon refused a Breathalyzer test, so his license was suspended immediately, which could last one to five years. In his October arrest, Dixon blew a .17. The legal limit is .08. That's quite a bit of booze.
