WHITE SULFUR SPRINGS, W.Va. — The weather is improving at Cleveland Browns training camp.
Rain is forecast for the area around The Greenbrier for much of Monday. These include some severe thunderstorm threats, especially in the afternoon.
That has led the Browns to push practice to 8:45 a.m. in an attempt to avoid at least some of the showers. Of course, by that time it was raining.
Monday is also the day the Browns put their pads back on for the first time. This won't be your dad or grandpa's first padded practice, though, so don't go too far in terms of high contact.
Stay tuned here for key updates from the Browns' fourth training camp start on Monday, as well as anything important head coach Kevin Stefanski has to say.
Browns sign linebacker Zach Johnson, place Brian Allen on injured reserve
The Browns made roster changes before Monday's practice. They signed linebacker Zach Johnson while placing linebacker/linebacker Brian Allen on injured reserve.
Allen left Saturday's practice with a calf injury. Injuries have been an issue for him throughout his career with the Los Angeles Rams.
Jerome Ford returns to training camp due to personal reasons
Running back Jerome Ford returned to practice Monday. He missed the first three practices due to what he called “personal reasons.”
