Chew on this

If DB Jereme Perry makes the team and appears in a game for the Browns this season — and his odds are pretty decent — he will become the first “sandwicher” of the new Browns era. I use the term to mean a player who appears in a regular season game for the Browns both before and after appearing in a regular season game for another NFL team.

My tally shows that three men who played for the original Browns returned to the reborn franchise in 1999: Jerry Ball, Orlando “Zeus” Brown, and Antonio Langham. But no one yet has left the “new” Browns and returned.

For the record, other “sandwichers” in Browns history include Paul Warfield, Ernest Byner, “Turkey” Joe Jones, Jim Ninowski, and Jack Gregory. Am I missing anyone?
