Browns: Second year corner Cam Mitchell practices for the first time

The Cleveland Browns got bad news last week after the team announced that cornerback Greg Newsome II would miss the start of camp with a hamstring injury. That injury raises questions about whether he will play in the season opener against the Dallas Cowboys.

In addition, second-year corner Cam Mitchell has also been absent from practice with an injury, leaving the team thin at nickel corner. But the team got good news on Tuesday as Mitchell was able to return to practice for the first time since training camp started last week.

There is a good chance the team will need Mitchell to start the season opener, so it’s great for the team that he gets back on the field early as Newsome recovers.

Corner is a strength of this team, and Mitchell showed some flashes as a rookie and should be able to hold down the fort for a little bit until Newsome is cleared.
