Browns vs. Packers time, location, streaming, odds & more: Everything you need to know
The Cleveland Browns will play their first preseason game of the summer this Saturday against the Green Bay Packers. Preseason games might not count in the final record books but they're important because it gives fringe-roster players a chance to prove that they belong on the final roster.
The preseason gives the Browns coaching staff a chance to see which fringe-roster players have made enough of a statement to make the final roster and it also helps them get rid of the players who haven't shown enough.
