Browns defensive tackle Phil Taylor, a first-round draft pick last year who started all 16 games and had an impressive rookie season, suffered what may have been a serious injury while working out today.
John Telich of Fox 8 in Cleveland reports that Taylor will have an MRI on an injury suffered today. On Twitter Telich wrote that Taylor’s agent confirmed that Taylor’s injury is a possible torn pectoral muscle.
A torn pectoral can take several months to heal, so it would be a significant injury for Taylor and a significant blow to the Browns’ defense to lose one of their best young players for an extended period of time.
