Andy Lee's move closer to home 'a good thing'

Andy Lee’s past will be returning to him this weekend.

Lee spent 11 seasons with the 49ers and earned three first-team All-Pro honors while establishing himself as the best punter in franchise history after the 49ers selected him in the sixth round of the 2004 draft.

His offseason began with a devastating family tragedy and ended with a trade to the Cleveland Browns that moved him closer to his family in Charlotte, North Carolina.

The 49ers travel to face the Browns on Sunday, and Lee is not quite sure what to expect – or what emotions he will feel – looking across the field to see those familiar 49ers road uniforms.
