The NFL quickly responded and, working with city officials, developed a unique solution that not only provided for a new state-of-the-art stadium, but guaranteed the return of pro football to Cleveland by no later than 1999. Additionally, Art Modell agreed to relinquish the "Browns" name, colors and team history to the new owner of the suspended franchise.

Do you like your CROW well done?
None of that matters. Your browns still remain the faux cleaveland browns.
The "descendants" of browns players went to Baltimore. Lamar Jackson, not Baker Mayfield is the descendant of Bernie Kosar, and Brian Sipe before him and Otto Grahamcracker before him.
Remember Vinnie Testeverde was the last QB to play in cleaveland. He replaced Kosar. Vinnie remained the starter when the clowns moved to Baltimore.
