options for:Browns plan to keep current helmet
designTwitterFacebookRedditPocketFlipboardEmailThe Cleveland Browns will debut a
much-needed uniform makeover for the 2020 season. While the specifics of what
the new uniforms will look like are a close-held team secret, there is one bit
of good news as the team will not touch its iconic helmet.That bit of news comes
straight from David Jenkins, the team¡¯s executive vice president and chief
operating officer, in an interview with on 92.3 The Fan Friday morning:That is
good news and should give Browns fans hope that the team will get this uniform
redesign right, unlike the current mess that the team has worn since 2015 and is
routinely listed among the league¡¯s worst uniforms.One way to fix that
particular problem this season is for the team to wear its monochromatic color
rush uniform as much as possible. While that set is nothing special, it is
better than the regular uniforms and grew in popularity with fans last
season.The hiccup in that plan is that the NFL limits how often a team can wear
its color rush set - because killing fun is apparently part of the league
office¡¯s business plan - and has not issued a ruling on the Browns request to
wear the color rush uniforms up to eight times this fall.According to 92.3 The
Fan, there are numerous reasons the NFL may say ¡°no¡± to the Browns,
primarily:Even if the NFL denies the Browns the opportunity to wear the color
rush uniforms for half the
season

the team will still roll them out as often as the league will allow them, with
the primetime games the most likely candidates. The Browns would prefer Odell
Beckham Jr. attend their offseason program than not, but they understand it¡¯s
voluntary. So new coach Freddie Kitchens isn¡¯t sweating Beckham¡¯s absence.¡°I
would rather for him to be here than not here, but I understand why,¡± Kitchens
said in his Saturday press conference. ¡°I talk to Odell every day. He knows what
we are doing offensively every day. I don¡¯t know if you guys know who the people
that sat out [offseason programs]. The past two defensive players of the year
sat out of all training camp. Did you know that? Khalil Mack, he is a pretty
good player. He didn¡¯t have any offseason program in the spring, and Aaron
Donald. They didn¡¯t have any offseason. Now, it

Jersey , and it is better for us to have them here us being a new staff,
but if we can¡¯t have him ready to play when he shows up, they need to find a new
head coach, and they need to find a new position coach. He will be ready to
play. Don¡¯t worry about that. I¡¯m sure you are, but don¡¯t worry about it.¡±The
star receiver showed up for the first day of the voluntary offseason program
April 1 but has worked out on his own in Los Angeles since. That is his typical
offseason routine.The team¡¯s mandatory minicamp is June 4-6.Beckham has a new
quarterback in Baker Mayfield, but the two have worked in California the past
two offseasons and likely will again later this offseason. Reporters, though,
asked Kitchens about Beckham not being at the team facility to get to know his
new coaches and teammates. Kitchens appeared to take a shot at former head coach
Hue Jackson in his answer.It¡¯s a new day in Cleveland.¡°I understand
that

and teammates. ¡°I also understand that you guys are always trying to define and
draw lines in the sand between coaches and players and players. That isn¡¯t going
to happen anymore. That isn¡¯t going to happen here. There is no problem with
Odell not being here. I would rather him be here; he is not here. It is
voluntary. That is what the word voluntary means. He can decide to come or he
can [decide not to come]. Under no circumstances am I going to say that I am
pissed off at Odell for not being here. He will be ready to play, and
ultimately, that is the only thing that I want is for him to be ready to play
when we start kicking off in September. He will be [ready]. I promise
you.¡±Beckham, 26, averaged 78 catches, 1,095 yards and almost nine touchdowns a
season in his five seasons with the Giants.
