Browns | Joe Thomas would not be shocked if traded

Cleveland Browns OT Joe Thomas said he would not be shocked if the team decided to trade him at some point. ‘It’s not a safe business where anybody can say that I’m comfortable and they can’t trade me or they can’t cut me or anything like that because that’s just not the way it is,’ Thomas said. ‘You’ve got to perform every week, and nobody is untouchable.’ The Browns likely will not trade Thomas this season. Chief executive officer Joe Banner said the team is not expected to make any more trades but did not rule out the possibility.

Footballguys View: The locker room has to be uncomfortable right now in Cleveland. Thomas is one of the best left tackles in the game today. Trading him would be a crazy move with little to gain.

Cowboys | Orlando Scandrick gets praise

Dallas Cowboys head coach Jason Garrett praised CB Orlando Scandrick, saying he competed well with good wide receivers. ‘Scandrick did some good things,’ Cowboys coach Jason Garrett said. ‘Orlando’s a good football player. He’s one of those guys that sometimes you pigeon hole guys and say, ‘Hey, he’s an inside guy. He’s a nickel.’ He’s got a little something to him. He always has. A little bit of a chip on his shoulder, kind of like a bolder or a mountain. We think that’s good. He brings that with every opportunity we give him, whether it’s a as teams guy or an inside cover guy, as a nickel or as an outside guy. I thought he competed well with some good receivers.”
