Jamaal Lewis Available
 

The Cleveland Browns announced their release of veteran running back Jamal Lewis Wednesday as the team continues its makeover under new president Mike Holmgren.

Lewis' future in the NFL is uncertain. He initially said that 2009 would be his final season. But after spending time on injured reserve with post-concussion syndrome, Lewis later hinted that he may be open to returning.

Either way, it won't be for the Browns. The release makes Lewis an unrestricted free agent and free to sign with any team if he doesn't retire.

Lewis rushed for 10,607 yards and 58 touchdowns in his career with the Browns and Baltimore Ravens. He made the Pro Bowl in 2003 when he rushed for 2,066 yards with Baltimore.



His legs are real tired, but he has continued to be somewhat effective late in his career. He fits the physical mold for the type of back people would like to spell Charles. Worth a look? Or are two Jamaals too many for one backfield, in this case?

I'll ****ing kill you.

Man...

I get that he's old as ****, but on a cheap-ass contract, he could churn out a few yards when you need him to.

What NFL have you been watching?

LMAO

Thumbs down while making obnoxious farting noise.

He wouldn't be bad as a power back for short yardage situations to spell JC.

:Lin:

Alright, alright. I'm not saying this is a move we should pursue in any way. Just a mention to gauge what other people think about this. The guy did have a thousand yard season in '08, though. '09 was a rough year for him. Real rough.

Well, at least you refrained from saying he could show Charles "the ropes"

If moving mach negative one were the ropes, Lewis could show him that.

It was just for considering him as a short-yardage guy, if he still wants to play.

4 TDs in 2 years. Yep. Short yardage indeed.

LMAO

Nice av.

Ha. Fair enough. :)

the running back position is not a place we should go "old" at

DO IT!!! 6 years 100 million DOLLARS!!! YES

CHAMPIONSHIP

Thank you for posting the link in the other thread. God I love that mother ****ing guy.

I think he'd be a good addition.

I hear John Riggins is available. We might even be able to pry Christian Okoye or Barry Word out of retirement. Good Lord, folks...we can draft a very serviceable backup and red zone guy in the middle/late rounds.

Pestilence will ****ing kill you!

How do some of you dumb mother ****ers ever make through a ****ing day without somehow managing to accidentally kill youself?

JFC.

we do need a punt returner

this.

I didn't know the janitor at 1 Arrowhead place quit.

How do you manage to get through a whole day without your heart exploding? Your blood pressure must be absurd if you get mad at things so harmless as a guy wondering what public opinion on something like that would be.

Yeah, he's old and immobile. I get it. At no point did I say, "Hey, here's a guy we should work out." My thread title may have been misleading, but I was simply asking.

My sincerest apologies to every person in this thread. I've made a dire mistake.

Boris says... NYET.

Right physicality, wrong guy.

Since I'm not actually mad, and no one here has ever actually seen me mad, my blood pressure isn't a problem

But I'm touched by your concern.
