Cleveland's Baxter Out For The Season

(Sports Network) - Cleveland Browns cornerback Gary Baxter tore the patellar tendon in his left knee on Sunday versus the Denver Broncos and will miss the rest of the season.

In the second quarter of Sunday's 17-7 loss, Baxter tried to break up a deep pass to Javon Walker but he landed awkwardly and grabbed his left knee.

Head coach Romeo Crennel believes that Baxter also tore his right patellar tendon and will miss a full year.

Baxter will have surgery on Tuesday.

This was Baxter's first game since Week 2 after he injured a pectoral muscle. He missed 11 games last season with the same injury.

Baxter, who signed a five-year deal with the Browns before the 2005 season, didn't miss a game in his first three seasons with Baltimore.

He has 21 tackles and an interception this season.
