After Misses in Opener, Browns Kicker Andre Szmyt Rebounds with Game

On Wednesday, Andre Szmyt was named the AFC Special Teams Player of the Week after making two field goals, including a 55-yard game-winner last Sunday versus the Green Bay Packers.
After July 10, Szmyt faced training-camp pressure and beat veteran Dustin Hopkins, but he struggled in the Week 1 opener, missing an extra point and a field goal.
He made all three kicks in the final four minutes, scoring seven points, and the next day Szmyt went 3-for-3 on kicks, including a 38-yard field goal.
Coach Kevin Stefanski, Browns coach, presented a game ball and praised Szmyt's perseverance after his kick that knocked the Green Bay Packers from the undefeated ranks, while Szmyt said he hopes for a steadier week-to-week outlook.
Despite a calf injury sustained the Friday before the game, Cleveland now heads to Detroit on Sunday and then to London to face Minnesota on Oct. 5.
