Days after the Browns' running backs were called out by their position coach, head coach Mike Pettine told SI.com that the team has discussed whether it makes sense to sign Ray Rice.

Rice has not played since he was released by the Ravens last season after video surfaced that showed him knocking out Janay Rice, who was then his fiancée, in an elevator.

Jimmy Haslam has no plans to initiate a significant rebuild if the Cleveland Browns struggle to begin the 2015 season.

"We're not going to blow things up, OK?" Haslam said Saturday after the Browns' third practice of training camp. "I think we're on the right track, so we're not going to blow things up.

"[I] Understand why people might ask that after a couple bumps in the road the first couple years. I think we're putting in place a good foundation."

Haslam has stood behind Mike Pettine and Ray Farmer.

"I think we got the right people in place to over a period of time be successful here," Haslam said.

The Browns went 7-9 last season in Pettine's first year as a head coach and Farmer's first year as a GM.
