Browns rookie giving Eagles offense issues in joint practices

Browns rookie giving Eagles offense issues in joint practices originally appeared on The Sporting News

The Cleveland Browns are holding joint practices with the Philadelphia Eagles, and there have already been noteworthy waves coming from the first joint practice.

For starters, Shedeur Sanders suffered an oblique injury that has many worried about his status for the second preseason game. In more positive news, Diontae Johnson reportedly had a terrific outing against Philadelphia's secondary - and he isn't the only Browns player that stood out.

Rookie Mason Graham reportedly had himself a day against a very good Eagles offensive line.

"Mason Graham just got a 'sack' on Hurts after he couldn’t find an open receiver," Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN posted on X.

The Browns traded out of the No. 2 overall spot with the Jacksonville Jaguars, who took wide receiver/cornerback Travis Hunter. The Browns then took Graham with the No. 5 overall pick to put in the middle of their defensive line.

Should Graham's play on the practice field translate into the regular season, the Browns could have one of the best fronts in football.
