It is Friday, March 25, 2022, and the Cleveland Browns fans have been riding a whirlwind since last Friday when the Deshaun Watson trade was first announced.
Watson is in Cleveland, and he is the lead story in Friday’s Browns Nation news and notes.

4. Clowney Watch Continues
Free-agent defensive end Jadeveon Clowney has not signed with another team, and Browns fans are wondering what’s happening behind the scenes to bring him back to Cleveland.
I would really like the #Browns to re-sign Jadeveon Clowney.

Though the Browns are reportedly still in contention to bring him back in 2022, Tommy Garrett of Pro Football Network believes the retooled Miami Dolphins could also be in the running.
The Kansas City Chiefs could also be in the mix as well as the Los Angeles Rams who recently lost Von Miller to the Buffalo Bills.

The hometown Chiefs will be more active because of the picks gained in this week’s Tyreek Hill trade to Miami.
