Waning patience

BEREA -- Among many problems Browns coach Pat Shurmur has to deal with is handling Greg Little's celebratory actions after making receptions.

Little celebrated after both of his catches last Sunday against the Buffalo Bills. In didn't matter that the Browns were losing.

Shurmur said that he's had several conversations with the second-year receiver about his actions. Apparently Little isn't listening.

“I can’t speak for everyone else, but I’ve had my conversations with him about that,” Shurmur said Monday. “Whether people see me ranting and raving on the sideline at a player; trust me I have my conversations with him about all issues.”

In addition to his celebrations, Little is also getting under Shurmur's skin with more drops. He had another in the Buffalo game.

"Greg has to be more consistent catching the football. That’s it,” Shurmur said.

INJURY REPORT: Receiver Mohamed Massaquoi pulled a hamstring in the third quarter and is listed as day-to-day. Tight end Alex Smith missed the game with a head injury and is also day-to-day.
