We really did need another depth player at T. But yeah ... it's a serious need with Smith injured 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

richard pallo Posted December 12, 2023 Share Posted December 12, 2023 The Browns starting RT is having season ending surgery. I think they could technically sign him to their active roster and poach him from our practice squad. Hoping it doesn’t happen. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
