The Browns have decided not to wait for Jamal Lewis to announce retirement and released him today - there is word going around that Jamal is not going to retire after all as he owes some big debts outside of football
Jamal at 30 years of age reminds me of Corey Dillon when he came here at 30- A bruising back to have has some big time years in the past but as he started in his late 20s he then got beat out by the new star on the team (Rudi Johnson in Cincy and Jerome Harrison in Cleveland)
I know our RB area is stocked right now (there will be changes), but we don't seem to have that type of back who can move the chains consistently,at 5 11" and 240 pounds if Jamal has anything left he could be a good pickup - I don't see both Morris and Taylor on the team this year (Morris could be cut,Taylor could get released or retire and Maroney is a ticking time bomb)
Is Jamal worth a one year deal of about 1.5 Million or is he washed up? - I expect a rookie RB to be drafted but I also expect least one,maybe two of the RBs on this team to be gone well before TC
Jamal if anything is one of the most durable running backs in league history,only missing about 5 games in his 10 year career
I would think his drug dealing days from 4 years ago have come and gone
A Dumb thought for interest or intriguing?
