The Cleveland Browns place Dave Zastudil on I.R.
The Browns have placed 31-year old punter Dave Zastudil on the Injured Reserve List with a knee problem. He played in 8 games for the Browns last season and he punted the ball 49 times for 2,188 yards (44.7 avg). Zastudil pinned the opposition inside their own 20-yard line 25 times last year and he had 5 touchbacks. 28-year old Reggie Hodges will replace Zastudil as the Browns’ starting punter in 2010. Hodges played in 8 games for the Browns last season and he punted the ball 45 times for 1,789 yards (39.8 avg). He pinned the opposing team inside their own 20-yard line 15 times and he had 3 touchbacks. Hodges will be a dropoff from Zastudil but the Browns don’t appear to worried about it.
