The Cleveland Browns opened their mandatory minicamp on Tuesday as parts of the state of Ohio deal with the aftermath of thunderstorms and significant heat.
The two biggest stories remain at quarterback with Deshaun Watson and Baker Mayfield. Tuesday alone, we covered a report that two more lawsuits would be filed and then Watson talked for the first time since his initial press conference.
Mayfield and the team agreed that he would be excused from the mandatory minicamp while news broke that the Carolina Panthers had a sense of urgency in wanting to acquire the former Heisman Trophy winner.
