Dolphins quarterback Ryan Tannehill is struggling against the depleted Browns defense, and that defense delivered a touchdown.

Browns cornerback Briean Boddy-Calhoun returned an interception 27 yards to put the Browns up 10-7. Boddy-Calhoun is a rookie the Browns claimed via waivers earlier this month.

Two Browns defenders were closing in on Tannehill as he released the interception and it appeared his arm may have been hit by Tyrone Holmes.

The Browns have used Terrelle Pryor at both quarterback and wide receiver in an effort to keep the Dolphins guessing and take pressure off of rookie quarterback Cody Kessler, who’s making his first NFL start.
