Browns | Duke Johnson not changing positions
Cleveland Browns RB Duke Johnson will not be moved to wide receiver even though the team added RB Kareem Hunt this offseason, according to head coach Freddie Kitchens.
Footballguys View: Johnson might be traded away once Hunt is off the suspension list. We don’t know what he’s got to serve but the league should be handing down a suspension for Hunt. Once that happens, the clock is likely ticking on Johnson’s time with the Browns.

Cincinnati Bengals impending free-agent TE Tyler Eifert will have talks with the Bengals about a possible return, but director of player personnel Duke Tobin said he is not sure if Eifert will re-sign with the team.
Footballguys View: Eifert is talented but he’s so oft-injured it’s difficult to trust him. The Bengals will need TE help with Eifert hitting the open market. Even if they keep him around for 2019 and beyond, they can’t trust him to stay healthy.
