The Cleveland Browns demonstrated their utmost confidence in the health of running back Trent Richardson by dumping his only proven backup. The Browns released Brandon Jackson on Sunday, reports ProFootballTalk. Jackson, 27, managed a paltry 1.5 yards per rush attempt on 28 preseason carries. Injuries have limited him to just two games in two seasons since signing a $4.5 million contract with the Browns after the 2011 lockout. To replace Jackson, the Browns claimed Bobby Rainey and Dennis Johnson off waivers from the Baltimore Ravens and Houston Texans, respectively, according to multiple reports. Source: NFL.com
Jesus, they apparently hate everyone they saw in camp who isn't starting right now. Going from scratch at backup rb after Lewis' injury. Things could go real bad real fast, TRich is not invincible.
