Browns quarterback Brian Hoyer underwent successful surgery Friday to repair his torn right anterior cruciate ligament, the Cleveland Plain Dealer reports. He spent a lot of time in the hospital over the last week as earlier his wife gave birth to the couple's second child. 

Hoyer is expected to make a full recovery after his surgery. The QB is expected to be able to participate in organized team activities beginning in May. 

"We’re hopeful in the spring that we’ll see him,'' said coach Rob Chudzinski. "Again, I’ll get a little better idea [later]. From my understanding, everything went well with the surgery. Just knowing him, from a rehab standpoint, I know he’s going to do everything he can to get ready."
