Cleveland Browns vs. Green Bay: How to watch, listen to the game
By Thomas Moore
The Cleveland Browns open the preseason tonight with a game against the Green Bay Packers. Here is how you can watch or listen to all the action.
A little more than seven months since their last game, three months since they selected 14 players in the NFL Draft and two weeks since they opened training camp, the Cleveland Browns are finally ready to take the field.
The Browns will open the preseason tonight in Green Bay with a game against the Packers. It will be the first time fans will get to see the Browns under head coach Hue Jackson and with Robert Griffin III lined up at quarterback.

“ I’m really eager to see our whole football team against a different opponent, but obviously, to watch our quarterback under duress when it’s tough, when the other team is really coming after you, but also, our offensive line, our defensive line, our secondary and our linebackers” Jackson said. “I’m going to be very, very into watching our football team play. I’m probably going to have to catch myself because I have so many responsibilities as we go through this.
“I am very excited about our guys going out and competing against somebody else for a change.”
Fans won’t be seeing first-round draft pick Corey Coleman, he joins veteran wide receiver Andrew Hawkins on the sideline as both are dealing with hamstring injuries. But several of the team’s other draft picks, including wide receivers Jordan Payton, Ricardo Louis and Rashard Higgins, and defensive end/linebacker Emmanual Ogbah, should see their first action against another NFL team.
