3 takeaways from the Cleveland Browns Orange and Brown Scrimmage

The Cleveland Browns held their annual Orange and Brown Scrimmage on Saturday and Terrelle Pryor stole the show in his return to Ohio Stadium.

The Cleveland Browns returned to Columbus for the second consecutive year for their annual Orange and Brown Scrimmage.

Some of the excitement surrounding the event was lost due to it being a non-padded scrimmage as fans were disappointed that the Browns had already held their fully padded scrimmage the night before. Head coach Hue Jackson had announced earlier in the week, however, that the scrimmage in Columbus was going to be a walk-through of game-day conditions.

True to his word, the Browns started their 3 p.m. scrimmage with a typical pre-game warm-up routine. They even went back into the locker room after warm-ups as a team would on game day. They were later announced as a team, ran out of the tunnel and began the scrimmage.

The teams stopped for halftime, retreating into the locker room to make adjustments. They returned to the field 10 minutes later and ran two more offensive series for both the Brown and White teams.

The scrimmage itself did not disappoint (as much as a non-padded scrimmage could). There were exciting plays on both offense and defense. Ohio State alum Terrelle Pryor put on a show in his first visit back to Ohio Stadium since his five-year NCAA ban ended. Christian Kirksey, another Big 10 standout, made excellent plays in both the run game and coverage for the Browns defense. And Danny Shelton looked as good as a lineman could without pads on.

Given of the show that Pryor put on, the offense looks primed to be exciting this season.
