The ray of hope Cleveland fans got last night may have been a lie. The Browns may lose two of its offensive weapons within hours of each other.

After word broke of Josh Gordon's potential season-long suspension, ESPN's Chris Mortensen revealed that newly acquired wide receiver Nate Burleson has re-fractured the same arm he broke last year.

Now @mortreport reports Browns WR Nate Burleson fractured arm - same arm he hurt last yr - in OTAs. Expected back for training camp. Still..

Both possible losses come a day after the Browns selected Johnny Manziel as the 22nd overall pick. Could he be Cleveland's version of the BasedGod curse? That would be a shame because, you know, Cleveland doesn't actually need another one.
