Wood: 'Browns didn't show class with Manuel injury'

Buffalo Bills center Eric Wood believes that the Cleveland Browns' defense showed no "class" after his side's quarterback EJ Manuel was knocked out of the game.

Manuel took a hit in the fourth quarter of his side's game with the Browns which forced him to leave the match and was replaced with backup Jeff Tuel.

Tuel threw a costly interception late in the contest, which was returned for a touchdown by TJ Ward to win the game for Rob Chudzinksi's side.

"The hit was fine," Wood told ESPN.com. "What ticked me off was the way [the Browns] acted afterwards.

"I hope our defense never acts that way when they injure an opposing quarterback. You have to show some class in that situation."

The Bills are 2-3 in their season following their defeat in week five.
