Browns pursuing Bengals receiver Marvin Jones in free agency

CLEVELAND, Ohio -- The Browns will pursue Bengals receiver Marvin Jones in free agency, a league source told cleveland.com.

Jones, 25, played for Browns coach Hue Jackson in Cincinnati and Jackson would like to bring him to Cleveland as his No. 1 or No. 2 receiver.

Jackson also liked Bengals free agent receiver Mohamed Sanu, but Jones has more speed.

Last season, coming off foot surgery that cost him all of 2014, Jones caught 65 passes for 816 yard and four TDs in 13 starts. The thinking is that Jones could break out of No. 1 receiver A.
