BEREA, Ohio – The COVID-19 pandemic has impacted all levels of football, from the NFL to little league and everywhere in between. The Cleveland Browns are working to help those in the in-between.
Over the next month, the Browns will be hosting a platform for high school prospects hoping to play college football at the Division II, Division III, NAIA or junior-college levels to upload their footage participating in drills like the 40-yard dash or bench press, which will then be made available to coaches and recruiters via an online portal.
“It’ll just give (the athletes) an opportunity to have their film viewed by college coaches, which is paramount this year, due to the dead period,” said Darrell Taylor, the Browns’ coordinator of youth football.
