It is Thursday, May 5, 2022, better known as Cinco de Mayo.
While Americans will revel in margaritas, nachos, and other Mexican culinary specialties to commemorate this Mexican holiday, the Cleveland Browns continue to be hard at work in this 2022 offseason.
Here is the Thursday edition of Browns Nation news and notes.
1. Johnson Did Not Sign Tender
When no other offers came in, it seemed inevitable that running back D’Ernest Johnson would sign his restricted free agent tender.
Brad Stainbrook is reporting that is not the case.
Johnson did not sign the tender but did sign a participation waiver to be involved with voluntary offseason workouts.
With a crowded running back room, it is yet to be determined what the could mean.
#Browns RFA RB D’Ernest Johnson, who was in attendance at voluntary workouts today, has yet to sign his RFA tender, per source.

Will he be a part of the Browns RB room in September?

To begin with, Wino is endearing himself with Browns very quickly, and this is just adding to that.
Then, there were the fan reactions including:

3. A JOK Sighting In Berea
Second-year linebacker Jeremiah Owusu-Koramoah is attempting to outplay his own spectacular rookie performance in 2021.
He is already back at it on the field at the Berea facility during voluntary workouts.

4. Schwartz Is On-Site Too
Wide receiver Anthony Schwartz is entering his second season filled with unmet expectations from Year 1.
In a young wide receivers room in 2022, is this the year Schwartz breaks out?
WR Anthony Schwartz is looking to break out in his second year with the #Browns.

Here is your Wyatt Teller appreciation post.
Watch this play in which Teller singlehandedly takes care of three Philadelphia Eagles.
