Browns release Calvin Pryor after reported fight with Ricardo Louis before practice

BEREA, Ohio -- The Browns have released safety Calvin Pryor after he reportedly fought with receiver Ricardo Louis before practice on Thursday.

Hue Jackson confirmed the release, saying it was "an internal matter.'' He declined to confirm the fight, which was reported by NFL Network.

Jackson said things happen in football.

Pryor was acquired in a trade with the Jets for linebacker Demario Davis on June 1st.

Sources have said the defensive coaches were dismayed that Davis, their starting middle linebacker, was traded in the first place.

Now, the Browns have nothing to show for the trade.
