The Cleveland Browns will see if Shon Coleman can move from right tackle to the left side as they plan to find the successor for Joe Thomas.
Thomas announced his retirement last week and had a farewell news conference Monday. He had played every snap of every game after being drafted third overall in 2007 until he tore his triceps tendon Oct. 22 against Tennessee. Before the injury, Thomas had pushed through knee and back issues to play 10,363 consecutive snaps.
The challenge in trying to replace a player who has been to 10 consecutive Pro Bowls and who was so reliable is immense.
