Browns sign McKinney, cut fullback Smith
Pittsburgh Tribune-Review, PA - 21 hours ago
CLEVELAND (AP) -- The Cleveland Browns signed offensive lineman Seth McKinney to a one-year deal Wednesday, when they also terminated fullback Terrelle Smith's contract before he was due a roster bonus at the end of the week.
McKinney started 34 games in five seasons with the Miami Dolphins, but missed all of last season after having neck surgery. The 6-foot-3, 310-pounder can play guard and center.

His addition will help the Browns' offensive line, which was thinned by injuries last season. Cleveland has made its line a priority during free agency and has already re-signed center Hank Fraley and given Eric Steinbach -- one of the best players in this year's free agent class -- a seven-year, $49.5 million contract.

Re: Browns get more offensive line help

I like that McKinney can play G or C, but I worry about his neck being 100%. Good signing for Cleveland?

I am sure they would have given him a physical before signing him, but with Cleveland you never know. They probalby just took his word that he was OK.

I would worry about his neck too. Could it get reinjured with all the head hits going on in the trenches.
