Stallworth chapter officially closed
In a sad but inevitable end to one of the more lamentable chapters in team history, the Browns today officially released receiver Donte’ Stallworth.
Stallworth was suspended for the 2009 season by NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell after pleading guilty to killing a pedestrian while driving drunk in Florida. He spent 24 days in jail.
Not exactly the kind of free-agent signee around which champions are built, Stallworth played one season for the Browns, catching 17 passes for 170 yards and one touchdown in 2008.
Stallworth, reinstated by Goodell after the Super Bowl, is now free to sign with any team. Can’t imagine there will be a stampede of general managers waving contracts in his face, but you never know.
Maybe the Bengals will look in Stallworth’s direction if they don’t sign T.O.
