Browns’ Rogers- Highway Patrol
[picappgallerysingle id="841933"]
Cleveland Browns DT Shawn Rogers might be starting to think about an occupation after football. Last week he must have been thinking about a possible career in law enforcement. According to Fox 8, Rogers was traveling on I-71 when he spotted a possible drunk driver, so he called 911.
Rogers followed the car and remained on the line with 911 service, even after the driver of the car had blown the right front tire and was driving on the rim. The driver of the car pulled the vehicle off to the side of the road then shut off the car’s lights. Rogers pulled up behind the vehicle and turned on his emergency lights to warn other drivers.
The Police arrived and both the driver and passenger of the vehicle were charged. The driver for DUI and the passenger for underage consumption.
The Middleburg Heights police chief said, “I thought his actions were above and beyond and I wanted to express to him as chief of police how much we appreciate what he did that night he helped keep Middleburg Heights safe”.
I wonder if he got a get out of jail free card for his wallet?
Estandia waived
My earlier post said that the Cleveland Browns had placed TE Greg Estandia on IR, and now reports are surfacing that Estandia has indeed been waived by the Cleveland browns due to his injury.

The Cleveland Browns have placed TE Greg Estandia on the injured reserve list. Estandia is a massive target at 6’8″ 240 pounds. Estandia is a UNLV product and is entering his 4th season in the NFL. Cleveland acquired him after week 2 in 2009 from the Jacksonville Jaguars. Estandia has 23 career receptions for 294 yards and no touchdowns. He was one of five tight ends on the Browns roster heading into the opening of training camp.
Browns sign Asante
FOX Sports is reporting that the Cleveland Browns have signed 5th round selection S Larry Asante. The Nebraska product is known as a punishing hitter and should compete right away for a starting position.
It is being reported that Asante has received a 170,000 signing bonus with minimum base salaries of 320,000, 405,000, 490,000 and 575,000 for the 4 years of the contract.
