Report: Browns bring in veteran OG Ron Leary for a visit
“We are going to look across every position to add talent and competition over the course of the next few months.”
Andrew Berry said those exact words twice and a close variation of it three others during his press conference in Indianapolis at the 2020 NFL Scouting Combine. Thus far, the greenhorn Browns GM has been a man of his word.
Faced with a depth issue at offensive guard thanks to three COVID-19 opt-outs, Berry has wasted little time in trying to add talent and competition before the hitting begins in training camp next week. Berry and the Browns have signed two guards who would qualify as “competition” in Jovahn Fair and Michael Dunn. Now they’re chasing the “talent” part of the equation.
According to a report from NFL.com’s Ian Rapoport, the Browns are bringing in veteran Ron Leary.
The free agent spent the last three years in Denver, starting all 29 games he played in. Prior to that stint, Leary spent his first five seasons in Dallas, a regular starter for the final four of those when he was healthy. The 31-year-old has battled numerous injuries throughout his career.
There is familiarity for Leary with the Browns. New offensive line coach Bill Callahan was his coach with the Cowboys from 2012-2014.
