Cleveland Browns: Corey Coleman, Cody Kessler cleared to play
The Cleveland Browns got some huge news on Monday after their big Jamie Collins trade, learning that Corey Coleman and Cody Kessler are healthy…
The Cleveland Browns have to be the happiest 0-8 team in league history today, as they traded for Jamie Collins on Monday and hours later, found out they were getting back rookies Corey Coleman and Cody Kessler from injury.
In just two games this season, Coleman had proven his worth as a first round selection, catching seven passes. Two of those seven catches went for touchdowns, and he averaged nearly 25 yards a catch.
We will never get to see Coleman, Terrelle Pryor, and Josh Gordon on the same field together, but we will get to see Coleman and Pryor together, hopefully with Cody Kessler at quarterback. Kessler has started five games this year for the Browns, and has been much better than most draft analysts anticipated.
He’s been efficient with the football, and now that he has two top flight receivers to work with, the Browns’ offense is sort of taking shape. They’ve already lost too many games to be in contention for anything this year, but they should at least be a lot of fun to watch.
After the trade for Jamie Collins, the personnel for the Browns is at least taking a turn in the right direction. With two key rookies healthy, Cleveland is looking at a fresh start and with nothing to lose this season, they can start finding out what kind of impact these players are going to make together.
With a matchup this weekend against the Dallas Cowboys, the Browns will look to play spoiler and they’ll have a full complement of weapons to get it done.
