We are doing a countdown to the Cleveland Browns' first regular season game against the New York Jets, which is on September 13, 2015. For each day we are counting down, we will try to find a photo of a current or past member of the Browns in that uniform, and we'll also list the players who have donned that jersey in the past.
As of Monday, we are just 62 days away from the Browns' regular season opener. No. 62 is currently being worn by backup offensive lineman Ryan Seymour. The number has been worn by a lot of players for short periods of time, but no one of top-level talent has had it. OG Jason Pinkson is right up there with the best to have worn it. Here is the list of players who have worn No. 62 in the history of the franchise, per Pro Football Reference:
