Browns franchise Dawson
The Cleveland Browns have slapped the franchise tag on veteran place-kicker Phil Dawson.
Dawson is a very good kicker and the Browns don’t have many quality free agents, but slapping the franchise tag on a kicker is very telling for the organization.
He has been the only kicker for the club since the city was awarded another franchise by the NFL.
He is the ninth most accurate kicker in NFL history despite playing just off the windy waters of Lake Erie.
Dawson has played in 183 games for the Browns, but the 35-year old has been a part of just two winning seasons.
