Cleveland Browns' receiver Jarvis Landry hasn't been happy with his new team for a while, and his mood is looking like it's going to get a whole lot worse after recent news was revealed surrounding his apparent hip injury.

Browns insider Mary Kay Cabot reported Thursday that Landry's season-long hip injury began with a fractured sacrum bone at the base of his spine, and has gotten worse from there. He's said he may consider surgery at the end of the year.

According to Landry himself, he'd been playing with a bum hip for quite some time now, and it started bothering him in OTAs before the campaign had even begun. He continued to muster through the pain in efforts to perform for his teammates.

Landry hasn't missed an NFL game since his career started, and his hampered hip hasn't stopped him from being named to his fifth straight Pro Bowl after leading the Browns with 81 receptions, 1,092 yards and five touchdowns on the year entering Week 17. It also hasn't stopped him from clamoring with coach Freddie Kitchens for more targets in recent games.

The Browns will face off against the Cincinnati Bengals in their season finale Sunday, with Landry needing just under 70 yards in the game to post a new career high for receiving yards.
