New Browns CB Justin Hardee has a message after returning to his hometown

The hometown kid is happy to be back.

The Cleveland Browns signed a Glenville High School graduate, cornerback, and special teams ace Justin Hardee today.

And he is pumped to be back in his hometown.

After graduating from Glenville High School, Hardee departed the Buckeye State to play his collegiate football at the University of Illinois. He was then signed as an undrafted free agent in 2017 by the Houston Texans before landing with the New Orleans Saints and the New York Jets after that.

Now in year eight, Hardee finally gets to return to the place he calls home. The Pro Bowl special teamer took to X (formerly known as Twitter) to express his excitement about being back in The Land:

“Cleveland!!! Let’s go I’m back home! Year 8 blessed. I had no clue but God always knew!!!”

The Browns fielded one of the best special teams units in the league last year, and they look like they want to continue that trend. While they lost one ace in Mike Ford Jr. this offseason, they bring in Hardee along with Tony Brown to keep that third phase of the game locked down.

Welcome home, Justin!

Browns S Rodney McLeod ready for ‘one last lap’ in 2024

The veteran safety hints that the 2024 season will be his last.

After re-signing with the Cleveland Browns, veteran safety Rodney McLeod hints that the 2024 season will be his last as well.

McLeod is entering the 2024 season at the age of 34 and on the heels of a biceps injury that ended his 2023 season and required surgery. Suppose this truly is the end of the line for McLeod. In that case, he will go down as a Super Bowl champion, Alan Page award winner, and a consistent contributor throughout his 13-year NFL career with the St. Louis Rams, Philadelphia Eagles, Indianapolis Colts, and Browns.

McLeod took to X (formerly known as Twitter) to express his excitement to return to the Dawg Pound, but added another note:

“Beyond grateful to run it back in Cleveland for one last lap!!!”

While the young safeties D’Anthony Bell and Ronnie Hickman Jr. filled in well for McLeod in his absence, there is a level of security with having the sturdy veteran on the field with Grant Delpit and Juan Thornhill.

Joining the likes of defensive end Za’Darius Smith and defensive tackles Maurice Hurst and Shelby Harris, the Browns are set to run it back with the league’s best defense from a year ago.

Browns WR Jerry Jeudy thankful following three-year extension

Jeudy is thankful after signing big extension

The Cleveland Browns further proved their belief in new wide receiver Jerry Jeudy on Tuesday, signing him to a massive three-year extension. It is clear that Andrew Berry has been trying to get Jeudy to Cleveland for a while, and now that he is here, they don’t want to let him leave anytime soon.

This extension reminds you of the David Njoku contract in which the team isn’t paying Jeudy for what he’s done but what they think he will do moving forward. After the extension, the new Brown took to social media to express his gratitude and thankfulness.

Not all the contract details have been released yet, but the Browns wouldn’t have committed this much money to Jeudy without a plan for him on the field. Some are saying it’s a horrible contract and an overpay, and in the end, we have no clue if it is until he gets on the field. Remember, most people said the same thing about the David Njoku deal when it was first announced. Ultimately, if Jeudy plays up to his talent level, this contract will greatly benefit Cleveland.

Nyheim Hines speaks after agreeing to terms with the Browns

The running back is excited to join the Browns

The Cleveland Browns continue to be active on day two of free agency, and their new running back Nyheim Hines has spoken for the first time since his signing was announced. Hines didn’t play last season after being injured in a jet ski accident resulting in a torn ACL.

He was one of the best returners on the open market and played for special teams coordinator Bubba Ventrone when the pair were with the Colts. Hines took to social media with a message to fans on Tuesday, saying he is excited to get to work and thanking everyone for welcoming him.

It will be interesting to see if the Browns add another running back in free agency or the draft, with Hines never carrying a significant workload offensively. But in the end, the ace returner is heading to Cleveland as Andrew Berry continues to build the team’s 2024 roster, with the official league year starting on Wednesday.

New Browns WR Jerry Jeudy responds for first time since trade from Broncos

Jeudy is excited for a fresh start.

For the third time in three seasons, the Cleveland Browns have traded for a wide receiver. First it was Amari Cooper, then it was Elijah Moore, and now it is former first rounder Jerry Jeudy who comes to Cleveland by way of the Denver Broncos.

The Browns gave up just a fifth and a sixth round pick to acquire the services of Jeudy, who has racked up over 700 yards each of the last two seasons. While these numbers do not match the hype he had coming out of Alabama, a fresh start with the brown and orange may be just what Jeudy needs.

And for the first time since the news of his departure from the Broncos broke, Jeudy took to social media to respond. You can see Jeudy’s response to joining the Browns below, as he has stated, ” Only dawgs allowed.”

It sure seems like the former first rounder is ecstatic for his clean slate in Cleveland.

CB A.J. Green III says goodbye to Browns, city of Cleveland

After four years in Cleveland, the cornerback is off to Minnesota

After signing a futures deal with the Minnesota Vikings, cornerback A.J. Green III has said his goodbyes to the Cleveland Browns.

Green signed with the Browns as an undrafted free agent out of Oklahoma State after the 2020 NFL draft. He would then become a staple on the active roster for three years, where he even contributed and started games for the Browns. He racked up two career interceptions in that time. This year, however, he did not make the active roster and was signed back to the practice squad after he cleared waivers.

His time in Cleveland, however, is now over as he is off to Minnesota. He is not leaving without saying goodbye though, taking to social media to send out his love for Cleveland and the Browns:

“Thankful for the Last 4 Years in Cleveland   I appreciate the Fans, Front Office, Coaches, and Players I established a relationship with over the years!”

Best of luck to Green as his time in brown and orange has come to a close.

It does not make the loss any easier, however, as a red-hot team stumbled to the finish line in the Wild Card round. And the players heard and felt that hurt as well, taking to social media to express their feelings about the loss to the Texans.

Filled with gratitude for the city, apologies for the lack of an outcome, and reflection, here are how Browns players reacted on social media as their season comes to a close.

Browns Twitter reacts to Christmas Eve victory over the Texans for win 10

The Browns, behind historic showings from Joe Flacco and Amari Cooper, beat down the Texans. Here is how Browns Twitter reacted.

What a day for the Cleveland Browns on the road in Houston as they secured a decisive victory. The game wasn’t nearly as close as the score at the end would suggest with two late scores against backups for the Texans. Quarterback Joe Flacco continues to tell Father time to leave him alone with another 300-yard passing game, with over 250 going to wide receiver Amari Cooper.

You could tell from the first play that Cooper and Flacco were in sync as the pair created big play after big play. It feels like we have not had a quarterback playing at a level like this consistently for a month since the return, it has been fun to watch.

The defense heard all of the noise about being unable to perform at a high level on the road. Though Myles Garrett didn’t get home Za’Darius Smith and company took care of that. The passing defense had one of its best coverage days to get the win, here is how Browns’ Twitter reacted.

Browns players react to another win vs. Texans as playoffs now within grasp

The Browns are feeling themselves after the win against the Texans. Here is how Greg Newsome II, Maurice Hurst, and other reacted on Twitter

The Cleveland Browns set records on their way to their tenth win of the season, taking down the Houston Texans by a score of 36-22. Wide receiver Amari Cooper set the new franchise mark for receiving yards in a game, 38-year-old Joe Flacco continues to sling the football all over the field, and the defense created two takeaways. And cornerback Greg Newsome II and defensive tackle Maurice Hurst were feeling it on social media after the game.

Now as the Browns return home to take on the New York Jets on Thursday night, they have a chance to clinch their first playoff berth since 2020. Doing this in front of their home crowd at Cleveland Browns Stadium has the potential to be an electric evening off of Lake Erie.

Here is how the players reacted on social media after the Browns came away with their third straight win, virtually locking themselves into the playoffs.

Browns QB Joe Flacco draws praise from two Cavaliers greats on social media

More support for the Browns signal caller

Another 300-yard passing game for quarterback Joe Flacco as the starting quarterback of the Cleveland Browns, totaling 374 yards and two touchdowns in the win over the Chicago Bears. And it has not gone unnoticed by two other Cleveland greats in Donovan Mitchell and LeBron James.

After another big game from Flacco two Cleveland Cavalier greats, Mitchell and James, took to social media to praise Flacco. It was truly another fun and exciting Browns game that ended in a win after they had to win ugly December football. Flacco talked about it last week about how you have to win games like this late in the year.

The Browns’ new starting quarterback came up clutch with a great fourth-quarter performance to snag another victory for Cleveland. Right now you just cannot count the Browns out in the fourth quarter if the game is close.

For now, the Browns have a great chance to make the postseason as they will go on the road to take on the Texans next week. If they take care of their business they will have their second playoff appearance for Kevin Stefanski.
