News broke out of Believeland today that recently acquired safety Calvin Pryor had been released from the Cleveland Browns after an “internal matter”, which was later to be confirmed as a fist fight before Browns practice with wide receiver Ricardo Lewis. Pryor was released just days before the Browns opener against the Pittsburgh Steelers on September 10th. Pryor was a first round pick by the New York Jets and was recently traded to the Browns on June 1st.

This is sure to be the Jets’ only win they are going to get the whole year, they clearly won this trade. As for the Browns, it’s gotta be tough to lose a guy like Pryor for a shitty reason as a pre-practice fight as the reports are saying. Probably the most liked and respected Brown on the roster right now, Joe Thomas, said that he did not hear or see anything regarding the “internal matter”, but said that head coach Hugh Jackson said that he just “had to listen to him because he’s the boss” and trust that Pryor deserved his release. Tough and confusing blow for the Browns for sure.
