Former Browns safety puzzled by free agency exodus
Former Browns safety Tashaun Gipson said the club’s decision to let four key starters leave on opening day confounds him. Gipson, who joined the Jacksonville Jaguars on a five year 35 5 million contract, called the purge confusing for fans and the city. He noted it is not his job to know the Browns’ strategy while expressing gratitude for his time in Cleveland and his new role in Jacksonville. Meanwhile Browns free agents including Alex Mack Mitchell Schwartz and Travis Benjamin departed. Bademosi also left for Detroit after four seasons with Cleveland. Gipson described his move as guided by God and said he could not have imagined playing elsewhere.
