August 8th, 2019 Matt Loede Posted in News

At the end of the day, running back Duke Johnson got his wish.

The Browns today moved Johnson, trading him to the Houston Texans ending a saga that saw the third-year running back change agents and demand a trade from Cleveland.

In exchange for Joshnson, the Browns will get a 2020 undisclosed draft pick, word from Ian Rapoport from NFL Network is that the Browns got a fourth-rounder that can become a third rounder.

While the Browns lose a running back, they again add to their draft picks for the 2020 campaign.

The team has 10 picks in the 2020 draft, including extra fourth- (potentially third-), sixth- and seventh-rounders for trading Duke Johnson, Jamar Taylor and Corey Coleman according to Tom Pelissero of NFL Network.

Johnson joined the Browns as a third-round pick in 2015. He appeared in 64 games with 10 starts. He registered 1,286 rushing yards and 2,170 receiving yards on 235 receptions with 13 total touchdowns.

Phil Dawson Announces Retirement, To Retire with the Browns

August 1st, 2019 Matt Loede Posted in News

Phil Dawson was never much for fanfare when he was kicking for the Browns during some very lean years in terms of wins by the Lakefront.

Now he will finally get the recognition he very much deserves.

It was announced today that the 44-year-old kicker is retiring, and that he will ink a one-day deal with the team that made him famous, having the chance to officially retire as as Cleveland Brown.

“To have the opportunity to come back home and retire with the organization and the city that I love is incredibly meaningful to me,” said Dawson.

“It only seems right to have the opportunity to do this with the fans that have been so good to me and my family.”

Dawson kicked for the Browns when they came back to the league in 1999. He was with the team through the 2012 season, and still holds team records for most career field goals (305), highest career field goal percentage (84.0), most field goals in a season (30 in 2008), highest field goal percentage in a season (93.5 in 2012), field goals in a game (six on Nov. 5, 2006), most consecutive field goals made (29) and most consecutive games with a field goal (23).

He scored 1,271 points with Cleveland, the second most by a Brown, and his 215 games are the third-most by a Browns player. In 2012, Dawson became the only Browns kicker selected to the Pro Bowl (Lou Groza was selected as a tackle).

“We are thrilled that Phil Dawson wanted to come back and retire as a Cleveland Brown,” said Dee and Jimmy Haslam.

Browns to Place LB Clay Matthews Into Their Ring of Honor

July 31st, 2019 Ryan Kaczmarski Posted in News

Provided by the Browns

Clay Matthews wasn’t expecting the call, and he certainly wasn’t expecting what followed.

The Browns Legend learned he was headed to the team’s Ring of Honor when general manager John Dorsey surprised him with a phone call earlier this summer. It was a true stunner for Matthews, who starred for a whopping 16 seasons with the Browns before closing his 19-year career with the Falcons.

“I was honored,” Matthews said. “I mean, the Browns have a pretty good legacy of players in that group. We lived through that generation of players mostly in the 60s who were so successful, and to be included in that group is just an honor.

“It seems like they’re doing a pretty good job of picking talent around there, so I’m going to ride that wave. The Browns, even though they had a little hiccup for a while when the team went away and came back, that’s what you think of when you think of the NFL. At least for myself growing up, the Browns, Packers, Bears, those type of teams that were there from long ago. To be included at this level is just a huge honor.”

Matthews will be honored during halftime of Cleveland’s Week 3, Sunday Night Football matchup against the Los Angeles Rams. His son, Clay Matthews III, is a linebacker for the Rams.

“With that platform, gosh,” Matthews said. “To honor me at the platform and with that going on and having him here, I’m just honored. I’m honored by the Haslam family and the folks who think I’m worthy of doing it.”
