Browns’ Josh Gordon Reinstated By NFL, Suspended First Four Games Of Season
by Zack Cox on Mon, Jul 25, 2016 at 2:25PM 1,593 Share this: Josh Gordon has been cleared to resume his NFL career after the league reinstated him Monday on a conditional basis. As part of his reinstatement, the Cleveland Browns wide receiver can report to training camp and play in all preseason games but will be suspended for the first four games of the regular season. He’ll also be allowed to attend team meetings during Weeks 1 through 4 but cannot practice with the team, according to a league statement. “As we discussed at our (July 19) meeting, as commissioner, I want nothing more than to see you turn your circumstances around and succeed,” NFL commissioner Roger Goodell said in a statement to Gordon released by the league. “Countless others including
Report: Johnny Manziel Threw Party Friday; Browns Sent Security To Find Him Saturday
Johnny Manziel couldn’t wait just one more week to throw a party. The Cleveland Browns rookie quarterback was fined for being late for treatment for his injured hamstring on Saturday, and Jason La Canfora of CBS Sports has the reason for his tardiness. According to La Canfora, Manziel threw a big party on Friday night that was “attended by many members of the club,” although names were not disclosed. It is unclear if Josh Gordon, who was suspended for the Browns’ Week 17 game against the Baltimore Ravens for violating team rules and was also absent from Saturday’s walkthrough, was at Johnny Football’s rager. LaCanfora added the Browns had to send security to
Browns’ Andrew Hawkins: ‘A Call For Justice Shouldn’t Warrant An Apology’
Andrew Hawkins wore a T-shirt in an effort to make a statement Sunday, but his strongest statement might have come a day later. Gathering reporters around his locker Monday, the Cleveland Browns wide receiver explained his decision to wear a shirt that read “Justice for Tamir Rice and John Crawford” before Sunday’s game against the Cincinnati Bengals. Hawkins’ small protest drew criticism from the Cleveland Police Union, which demanded an apology and called it “pretty pathetic when athletes think they know the law.” Hawkins responded to the police union and other critics of his gesture with a long statement, reportedly without notes. “I was taught that justice was a right that every American should
Report: Browns Beat Out Vikings For Johnny Manziel On Draft Night
by Zack Cox on Fri, May 9, 2014 at 8:51AM The Minnesota Vikings walked away from Round 1 of the 2014 NFL draft with a new quarterback, Louisville’s Teddy Bridgewater. But Bridgewater reportedly was not Minnesota’s first choice at the position. Jay Glazer of FOX Sports reported Thursday night that the Vikings attempted to trade up with the Philadelphia Eagles in order to draft Texas A&M’s Johnny Manziel at No. 22 overall, but that the Cleveland Browns offered the Eagles a better package for the pick. It’s unclear what the Vikings offered the Eagles for the 22nd selection, but the Browns were able to secure it by sending the 26th overall pick along with a third-rounder (No. 83) to Philly. Minnesota was successful on its
2011 NFL Mock Draft: Is Robert Quinn the Best Pick for the Cleveland Browns?
2011 NFL Mock Draft Splits Experts Between Robert Quinn and Julio Jones for Cleveland Browns at No. 6I have been pegging the Browns in a "can't lose" situation with this pick for a while now, but that might be changing in some eyes.Their major need is a wide receiver, but they also have needs for a defensive transition that will ultimately make this team better in a 4-3.They have the opportunity to add one of the best players in this draft, LSU's Patrick Peterson, but they added a cornerback in the first round last season.I think Haden and Peterson would be a terrific combination, but I can see the hesitation in adding top 10 corners in back-to-back seasons.Mel Kiper Jr.:
