At the NFL League Meetings back in March, Cleveland Browns owner Jimmy Haslam confirmed that legendary running back Jim Brown would have a defined role in the organization. At the time, he did not want to reveal the role just yet, stating, "it's a big deal and that's why I want to do it right." Two months later, the Browns are ready to unveil that role.
According to reports, the Browns will hold a news conference at 10:45 AM on Wednesday at FirstEnergy Stadium to announce Brown's new role with the organization, something that disappeared during the Mike Holmgren era. Besides getting ready for a role within the organization, Brown was also busy filming scenes for the movie "Draft Day" on Tuesday. He tweeted out the following picture:

Kosar, who reportedly will have a line or two in the film, praised Brown for his acting chops in comparison:
