After missing nine games last season with calf and ankle injuries, Kareem Hunt says he's fully healthy.

"I'm good, I'm 100%. I have some time to heal this offseason and get back to it," Hunt said. "So body is feeling good, nothing's bothering me."

The Cleveland Browns are 13-6 the last two seasons when both Nick Chubb and Hunt have played.

Deshaun Watson's disciplinary hearing has dragged out this week without much news on an expected outcome.

However, the Associated Press reports that the NFL "wants to avoid the appeals process -- source said 'a terrible situation for everyone involved' -- so league is more likely to abide by Sue Robinson's ruling if she came back with 6-8 games."

The league would rather settle the situation as quickly as possible, than have the Cleveland Browns quarterback suspended indefinitely and have the NFLPA enter an appeal.

Baker Mayfield hasn't completely ruled out a return to the Cleveland Browns, but he also said that both sides are ready to move on.

Mayfield's status remains in question in the wake of the Browns acquiring Deshaun Watson via trade. The possibility remains that Watson will be suspended for all, or most, of the 2022 season.

"I think for that to happen there would have to be some reaching out," Mayfield said of a return to the team. "But we're ready to move on, I think -- on both sides."

The Browns signed Jacoby Brissett this offseason to start if Watson is suspended.

Deshaun Watson's hearing before the NFL and NFL Players Association's jointly appointed disciplinary officer, Sue L. Robinson, will resume Wednesday.

The sides met for the first time Tuesday and the hearing may continue into later in the week.

Watson has been accused by 25 women of actions ranging from sexual assault to inappropriate behavior during massage sessions.

The NFL is expected to push for a suspension of at least a year, according to a report.

Deshaun Watson's hearing before the NFL and NFL Players Association's jointly appointed disciplinary officer is scheduled to begin Tuesday, according to sources.

Sue L. Robinson will listen as the NFL expects to push for a "lengthy" suspension for Watson while the NFLPA defends the Cleveland Browns quarterback.

Watson has been accused of harassing, assaulting or touching 26 women during massage appointments when he was with the Houston Texans.

He was at one point facing 24 civil lawsuits that accused him of sexual assault and inappropriate conduct during massage sessions. He has agreed to settle 20 of those suits.

The Seattle Seahawks still have a high-level of interest in Baker Mayfield, according to a report.

The report also suggests the Seahawks are even open to extending the quarterback's contract should they acquire him.

Mayfield is due $18.85 million in the final year of his rookie contract. 

The Seahawks have Geno Smith and Drew Lock at quarterback after trading Russell Wilson to the Denver Broncos this offseason.

Deshaun Watson has settled all but four of the lawsuits filed against him, attorney Tony Buzbee said in a statement Tuesday.

Since March 16, 2021, 25 lawsuits have been filed against Watson, alleging sexual assault and other inappropriate behavior during massage sessions. Of those 25, one was dropped by the plaintiff when the judge ruled her petition had to be amended with her name. The other 20, Buzbee said, have been settled.

"We are working through the paperwork related to those settlements," Buzbee said in a statement. "Once we have done so, those particular cases will be dismissed. The terms and amounts of the settlements are confidential. We won't comment further on the settlements or those cases."

NFL spokesman Brian McCarthy said Tuesday that, "today's development has no impact on the collectively bargained disciplinary process."

Buzbee said in his statement that without Solis' "courage and willingness to come forward, the NFL wouldn't currently be contemplating discipline; there would be no examination of how teams might knowingly or unknowingly enable certain behavior; sports teams wouldn't be reviewing their personnel screening processes; and this important story wouldn't have dominated the sports headlines for more than a year."

The Cleveland Browns are seeking a new $1 billion stadium as part of a lakefront redevelopment project in the city, according to a report.

The team has called FirstEnergy Stadium home for 23 years.

Ownership wants a covered stadium and are willing to move downtown to get the new building. 

The Browns have yet to confirm or deny the report.

Kareem Hunt is entering the final year of his contract, but has reportedly asked the Cleveland Browns for an extension.

Hunt's contract carries a base salary of just $1.35 million with a salary cap hit for the Browns of $6.25 million because of a $4.9 roster bonus.

"Right now I'm just taking it day by day, man," Hunt said. "I'm going to see what they want to do with me and I'm just taking it day by day. Hopefully I can be here longterm. We'll see what God has in plan for me, that's all I can say."

"I was born and raised here," the running back added. "I'd love to finish my career here and just keep playing the game with (Nick) Chubb longer and with the great guys on this great team."

Jadeveon Clowney says he re-signed with the Cleveland Browns once he knew Deshaun Watson was coming to the team.

"I thought I played well here last year, and I feel like I can get better and pick off from what I did last year," Clowney said when listing the reasons he returned to the Browns.

"Then my boy came here, Deshaun."
