Ohio State fans who have missed watching Braxton Miller might get the opportunity to see him a little closer to home this season.
Wednesday morning, the Cleveland Browns announced that they have signed Miller as a wide receiver. Miller has been at the wide receiver position since his final season at Ohio State in 2015. He was the Buckeyes’ quarterback for most of his career.
Cleveland will be the third team Miller has been a member of since turning pro. He was a third-round pick in the 2016 NFL Draft by the Houston Texans, where he spent his first two seasons. Miller was with the Philadelphia Eagles in 2018.
