Browns Rookie LB James-Michael Johnson Suffers An Oblique Muscle Injury

Found August 31, 2012 on GridironFans.com: Yardbarker Blogger Network
PLAYERS: James-Michael Johnson,  Chris Gocong,  Scott Fujita,  Kaluka Maiava,  Craig Robertson
TEAMS: Cleveland Browns,  Chicago Bears
Rookie linebacker James-Michael Johnson suffered an oblique muscle injury in the second quarter of the Browns' loss to the Chicago Bears at Cleveland Browns Stadium. As the game ended, the severity of Johnson's injury was not known.

The Browns cannot afford to lose another linebacker, a position in which they lacked depth even before training camp started. Chris Gocong will miss the season with a torn Achilles. Scott Fujita is still waiting word as to whether a three-game league suspension for his alleged role in the New Orleans bounty program will be rescinded.

If Johnson were sidelined for the Sept. 9 season opener, the Browns might be forced to field a starting linebacking corps of D'Qwell Jackson, Kaluka Maiava and untested Craig Robertson.

Overview of Cleveland Browns Quarterback Brandon Weeden's Training Camp

Via ClevelandHuddle  |  August 31, 2012
It has been pretty clear since training camp started that Brandon Weeden was the Cleveland Browns starting quarterback. Despite Pat Shurmur saying it was a competition with Colt McCoy, it was ended quickly by Brandon Weeden’s performance in camp. When I watched the first padded practice for the Browns, it was easy to see that Brandon Weeden's physical ability gives the Browns...

NFL Roster Cuts: Browns Cut Seneca Wallace

Via Waiting For Next Year  |  August 31, 2012
According to several reports, including Patrick McManamon and Tony Grossi, the Browns have cut QB Seneca Wallace. The move all but assures Colt McCoy of the back-up QB job and that he won’t be traded. Thaddeus Lewis will likely make the 53 man roster as the third string QB. After the game last night, Wallace hinted that there was a possibility that ‘something would have to happen’...

3 Million And One Reasons The Cleveland Browns Need To Cut Seneca Wallace

Via Cleveland Sports 360  |  August 30, 2012
Cleveland Browns backup quarterback Seneca Wallace continues to promote his Colt McCoy hate campaign publicly. Wallace took to the airways to once again say he won’t be Colt McCoy’s mentor. The Cleveland Fans should be happy about that fact. McCoy at least won some games last season that is more than we can say about Seneca Wallace. When the Browns picked Weeden in the draft...

Browns Q.B. Brandon Weeden Must Be More Ready Than Eli Manning, Manning’s Playing Tonight

Via Cleveland Sports 360  |  August 29, 2012
Browns coach Pat Shurmur has been reiterating for the past couple days, just how ready his 28-year-old rookie Q.B. Brandon Weeden is. I find it a bit unusual that Weeden himself has stated he needs more time to get comfortable with the speed of the game in the NFL. The other thing I find a bit unusual is the fact a guy like Eli Manning is playing for the New York Giants tonight in...

Browns Not Playing It Safe Waiving Safety David Sims, Huge Mistake Huge

Via Cleveland Sports 360  |  August 31, 2012
The Cleveland Browns should have found a way to keep David Sims on the roster. This guy was a beast at safety and with the Browns secondary always getting beat up having a guy like Sims is like having a great insurance policy on a house in a hurricane zone, you never know when the storm is going to hit and when it does you can move right on without even missing a beat. Sims had a...

Cancel the Season: Brandon Weeden to sit out Browns’ last practice game

Via Cleveland Frowns  |  August 30, 2012
On one hand, no one will ever go broke questioning the legitimacy and competence of the Holmgren/Shurmur regime. It’s easy enough to see pretty much any decision they make as resulting primarily from some combination of arrogance and fear, including the one to sit Brandon Weeden in tonight’s final preseason tuneup. Of course they don’t want anyone to get hurt tonight, but worse...

L.J. Fort given a new jersey number in Cleveland which is a great sign

Before the beginning of this season not many people were talking about L.J. Fort the linebacker from the University of Northern Iowa.  Fort was not even signed by an NFL team until 2 days after the draft, but when they did contact his agent Ryan Earls of Cover 3 Reps, they came at large. “There were several teams expressing interest in L.J. and we thought that the Browns were...

Via Waiting For Next Year  |  August 31, 2012
According to the player’s twitter feed, it appears as though Safety David Sims has not made the roster- The Browns have not released any information as of yet on releases today. Sims impressed in camp and preseason games with a few interceptions, including two returned for touchdowns. More details to come as they are available.

Some surprises in the Cleveland Browns final cut list. Some fans are shocked.

Via Cleveland Browns Report  |  September 01, 2012
  Anytime a team faces that final cut-down to the 53 man roster there are some very difficult decisions to be made. In some cases many of the releases made by the 32 NFL teams are not surprising, but sometimes they are downright shocking. For the Cleveland Browns there are a few shockers to hit the wire on Friday.

NFL News: Cleveland Browns make 22 roster moves, reach required limit

Via thepigskinreport.com  |  September 01, 2012
The Cleveland Browns made a series of roster moves on Friday in order to reach the NFL required 53-man roster limit. Two veteran players were released. TE Evan Moore and QB Seneca Wallace. Both players are vested veterans and will be free to sign with any other franchise immediately without having to go through waivers.

AP Source: Browns release QB Seneca Wallace

Via Fox Sports Ohio  |  August 31, 2012
CLEVELAND (AP) -- Seneca Wallace threw a touchdown on his last pass in Thursday's exhibition. Turns out, it was his last pass for the Browns. The veteran quarterback was waived Friday by Cleveland, a move that seems to indicate the team will keep former starter Colt McCoy as a backup to rookie Brandon Weeden. Wallace was released along with tight end Evan Moore, a person familiar...

Randy Lerner used a play from his 2005 playbook...sell an inherited asset for big money. In 2005, Lerner, then chairman of MBNA, helped sell the credit card bank to Bank of America. At the time, the Lerner family received $2.3 billion from the sale. Now, Lerner is on the verge of the sale of the Cleveland Browns, which should gross at least $700 million. If you’re doing...
