Browns To Use RB By Committee Approach

Jul 27, 2014 5:33 PM

The Cleveland Browns intend to use a running back by committee approach this season.

Ben Tate was signed in free agency, while they also have Terrance West and Dion Lewis.

"I think in the AFC North, you have to be running back by committee," Pettine said. "You'd like to have a guy that can carry most of the load, but also be able to alternate guys ... you've got to be able to get fresh legs out there."

Manziel Asked By Browns To 'Tone It Down'

Oct 6, 2014 1:58 PM

The Cleveland Browns would like Johnny Manziel to tone down his off the field profile.

In an Instagram video from June 15, you can hear Manziel say, "I can't hear you. I have too much money in my F------ hand."

"It did not sit well with the owner Jimmy Haslam, who did instruct his staff to at least have a talk with Johnny about being more savvy as he deals with social media," Mortensen said on ESPN's NFL Insiders via Cleveland.com. "We know you're young. We know you're single. Joe Montana himself said that Bill Walsh pulled him aside, and that was before the age of social media. Johnny Manziel has been told to tone it down, and to watch what goes up on social media."
