Cleveland Browns nose tackle Phil Taylor will be placed on season-ending injury reserve because of a knee injury, head coach Mike Pettine said Friday.

Taylor had arthroscopic surgery on his knee in October, but this injury is unrelated to that.

The 337-pound Taylor returned to action last week after missing a month following the surgery. He helped control the Cincinnati Bengals’ ground game in Sunday’s contest.

However, the Browns’ run defense may suffer with Taylor sidelined again.

The Browns rank 28th in rushing yards allowed per game (134.2) and 31st in yards per carry allowed.

Pettine also noted tight end Jordan Cameron’s status is uncertain because of concussion issues. It’s unclear whether Cameron will return this season.
