Patrick Murray came to Berea in June with nothing but three days of football guaranteed to him.

Two and a half months later, Murray is still with the Browns and in the thick of a kicking competition that will continue this week in Tampa.

Invited on a tryout basis, Murray impressed enough to earn a spot on the 90-man roster. He’s maintained that momentum throughout the preseason as he battles for a job with Cleveland’s incumbent kicker, Travis Coons.

Never once did he doubt his ability to give the Browns a tough decision to make at a position that only has room for one.
