NFL: Browns to scrimmage in Ohio Stadium

The Cleveland Browns will come to Ohio Stadium in August for a free intrasquad scrimmage, the team announced today.

The “Orange & Brown Scrimmage” will be Friday, Aug. 7. The Browns had a similar scrimmage last year in Akron.

“The intrasquad scrimmage is an important element of our preparation for the 2015 season,” Browns coach Mike Pettine said in a statement. “Ohio Stadium will provide a great atmosphere for our team to compete, and I’m confident our players and fans will enjoy the experience.”

This will be the first time the Browns will come to Columbus since they had a scrimmage against the Indianapolis Colts in Crew Stadium in 2000.
