Following Sunday's loss to the Oakland Raiders, head coach Hue Jackson revealed that Cleveland Browns cornerback Terrance Mitchell suffered a fractured forearm in the first half.

After a third down play in the second quarter, he was favoring his wrist as he left the field. He was initially listed as questionable before further examinations revealed that he would not be able to return to the field.

The veteran has been an effective starter for the Browns defense this season. The cornerback was signed to a three year deal worth $12 million.

Mitchell was a seventh round draft choice of the Dallas Cowboys in 2014 but he did not play a regular season down for them. He spent parts of two seasons with the Chicago Bears, as well as a year or less with the Cowboys and Houston Texans. He was also signed by General Manager John Dorsey in 2016 and spent two seasons with the Chiefs.

The 25-year old played in 30 games before this season. In those opportunities, he had accumulated 85 tackles, a sack, a forced fumble and five interceptions. Last season, in 15 games, he recorded 53 tackles and four interceptions.

Heading into Sunday's game, the Browns and Raiders had met in the regular season 22 times over the years. The Raiders held a 12-10 advantage in the series all-time. However, the Browns had won nine of the last 13 games. In 2015, Cleveland lost to Oakland at home, 20-27. The most recent meeting in California was in 2012 when the Browns won 20-17. Cleveland actually has a better record against the Raiders on the road rather than at home. The 45-42 loss Sunday night will make the series look even more lopsided.

The Browns defense led the league with a +9 turnover differential this season entering the game. They had recorded five interceptions and six fumble recoveries while only throwing two interceptions. It is a big improvement over where the team was a year ago when they finished dead last in the NFL with a -28 turnover differential. The Baltimore Ravens led the league at +17 last season.

Cleveland lost the turnover battle 4-2 in Oakland.
