The Cleveland Browns will kick off the 2017 NFL regular season on Sept. 10 as they host the Pittsburgh Steelers at FirstEnergy Stadium.
That is just 67 days away, which is a uniform number that has not had much distinction in the team’s history.
Melvin Fowler comes to mind, but he didn’t do much in Cleveland after being selected in the third round of the 2002 draft. Fowler spent just three years with the Browns, making just 14 starts. He played a season with the Minnesota Vikings and three with the Buffalo Bills, but was out of the NFL after the 2008 season.
