Week Two Preseason – Browns Look to Rebound vs Lions

Going into week two of the pre season, we have a lot of areas that need improvement. The Browns went out and signed two more practice squad “veterans” this week. Pat Murray, who was a Packers free agent sign, who was cut by the Pack, signed by Seattle to the practice squad, then picked up [...]
