After conflicting reports on whether or not Vikings assistant GM George Paton would be considered for the Browns GM spot, here we are.
Per ESPN’s Courtney Cronin, Paton is heading to Cleveland on Wednesday to interview for the second time for the GM spot.
Vikings assistant GM George Paton is flying to Cleveland today for his second interview for the Browns GM job, per league sources. Sounds like we could know something very soon, as in the next 48 hours.

Paton is familiar with new Browns coach Kevin Stefanski. The two spent more than a decade together in Minnesota with the Vikings.
It feels like Minnesota East is coming together in Cleveland.
