The Browns begin their Off-Season Training Activities (OTAs) next week. These are essentially "voluntary" practice sessions, where "voluntary" can be translated as "participate is optional despite the likelihood of public and private ostracism for non-attendance".
"Voluntary" is more compact and succinct, don't you think?
In any event, the Browns are allowing the media in one day each week during the next three weeks. The media can attend practices, interview players, and talk to Romeo Crennel on May 14. 21, and 28. So, that's when you'll see Browns stories appear in the local media over the next couple of weeks.
The practices are closed to the public.
