Did the Browns really talk to Cam Newton before he signed with the Patriots? Hey, Mary Kay!

CLEVELAND, Ohio -- In this week’s edition of my Browns mailbag, I answer questions about Cam Newton, Jadeveon Clowney and more.

Hey, Mary Kay: Did the Browns really talk to Cam Newton before he signed with the Patriots? — Dylan, Chicago, Ill.

Hey, Dylan: I’ve checked into this, and I don’t have any indication that the Browns had such a conversation about Cam Newton. Furthermore, it doesn’t make sense that they would have, because they’re committed to Baker Mayfield as their franchise quarterback, and are very happy with Case Keenum as his backup.
