Heading into Hue Jackson's first season, the Browns were back in Berea working out at the same time as Major League Baseball's Opening Day.
Now that Jackson is entering his second season, the Browns are set to begin their 2017 offseason workout program around the same time as the majority of the league.
Cleveland will open its offseason workout program April 17. Teams that brought in new head coaches were permitted to start workouts this week.
For the Browns, those workouts will run over the course of a month before OTAs get rolling May 19. Veteran mini-camp, the only mandatory portion of the offseason workout program, is slated to begin June 13.
