The Cleveland Browns traveled to Indianapolis early for their second game of the preseason against the Colts on Saturday so the teams could hold two joint practices during the week.
For both sides, it will ramp up the intensity because they are no longer going against their teammates all week. Instead, they will be getting different looks from players they are not used to practicing against.
This will provide the Browns coaching staff a chance to get a better feel at how ready the team is for the season. But it will also give the players a chance to see how they stack up against some stiff competition on the Indianapolis roster.
