Last month, Browns cornerback Kenny Wright lost a foot race to a couple of law enforcement types -- presumably because he was running with his eyes closed -- and was eventually cuffed and stuffed for, shockingly, evading arrest. He also was found to have marijuana on his person.
Well, the Browns finally got around to releasing the 10-year journeyman, which explains why he wasn't at the team's OTAs today.
With Leigh Bodden now in Detroit, the Browns have a need for depth at cornerback. Frankly, that was the case even with Wright on the roster. According to the Plain Dealer's Tony Grossi, second-year player Eric Wright and Daven Holley lined up as starters during today's practice. Gary Baxter, who's allegedly moving to safety, wasn't healthy enough to participate,
Sometimes fixing the secondary is an indirect process, and that's what Cleveland is hoping for in 2008; they traded for defensive linemen Shaun Rogers and Corey Williams, and have high hopes for young linebackers D'Qwell Jackson and Leon Williams. If the Browns' front seven can consistently mount a pass rush and manage to slow up the run (something they haven't been able to do in, well, forever), the four guys playing behind them won't much matter.
