Watch: Rashard Higgins TD catch gives Cleveland Browns 2nd-quarter lead over Los Angeles Chargers

The 7-yard reception capped off a 72-yard scoring drive, with Baker Mayfield finding one of his favorite targets wide open in the right front corner of the end zone.

INGLEWOOD, Calif. — Since coming to the Browns in 2016, Rashard Higgins has been affectionately known as "Hollywood." He lived up to that billing on Sunday.

The Cleveland receiver gave the Browns their first touchdown of the afternoon against the Los Angeles Chargers, as well as a 10-7 lead. The 7-yard reception capped off a 72-yard scoring drive, with Mayfield finding one of his favorite targets wide open in the right front corner of the end zone.

It was Mayfield's third TD pass of the season, and the first he's thrown to a wide receiver.

The 27-year-old Higgins is a tad behind his usual pace this season, but still has nine catches for 121 yards and that touchdown. He is averaging more than 13 yards per reception.

Unfortunately, Cleveland's lead didn't last for long, as on the Chargers' next drive Justin Herbert hit Mike Williams on a 72-yard TD pass of his own. LA still led 13-10 roughly halfway through the second quarter, but the Browns later found their footing and took a 20-13 lead at halftime.
