Cleveland Browns have no plans to release WR Dwayne Bowe
Coach Mike Pettine said that the Cleveland Browns have no plans to cut the veteran wideout despite Bowe playing just eight snaps all season due to a nagging hamstring injury.
“No. It’s a long season,” Pettine said, per Mary Kay Cabot of The Plain Dealer. “It hasn’t started out the way that we’ve all — including Dwayne — wanted it to but we’re confident that we’ll get him contributing here sooner than later.”
Bowe signed a two year deal worth 12.5 million with an ridiculous 9 million in guarantees.
Pettine promises that Bowe is “going to play,” while saying: “Dwayne will help us, but he’s just not there yet. The setback that he suffered during training camp, it’s just hard to make those reps up. Now that we’re in a practice week we’re hopeful we’ll get him out there and he’ll contribute as we expect him to do.”
