With player roles still to be determined, Browns chasing elusive defensive identity

BEREA, Ohio -- To date in Cleveland Browns training camp, there has been much focus on the quarterback position. Meanwhile, the following has taken place regarding the team's defense:

  • Desmond Bryant, the best defensive lineman, tore a pectoral muscle while working out before camp opened.

  • Second-round pick Emmanuel Ogbah moved back to a down lineman position after working at linebacker in the offseason. Ogbah now says he spends most of his time on the line but also has to learn linebacker plays.

  • Defensive end John Hughes, projected to start, has missed a week due to a personal matter that coach Hue Jackson refuses to discuss.
