Oklahomans in the NFL: Week 1
How players with Oklahoma ties fared during Week 1 of the NFL season:
CLEVELAND BROWNS
QB, Brandon Weeden (OSU, Edmond Santa Fe): A tough debut for Weeden, who completed just 12 of 35 passes for 118 yards during a 17-16 loss to Philadelphia. He did not throw for any touchdowns — and to make matters worse, he was intercepted four times. One ESPN Radio analyst said Weeden is failing to adjust to the speed of the pro game.
