CLEVELAND (AP) -The agent for Cleveland Browns return specialist Josh Cribbs said the Pro Bowler will clean out his locker at the team’s facility after an insulting contract offer from the club.
Peter Schaffer said the Browns failed to live up to previous promises to Cribbs. Schaffer said there is “no more middle ground” and that he is “extremely shocked” that new president Mike Holmgren would not understand Cribbs’ value to the Browns.
Schaffer said he gave the Browns until the end of the business day on Wednesday to come up with a better deal than the $1.4 million per year they offered. Cribbs has three years remaining on a six-year, $6.77 million deal.
Cribbs was Cleveland’s most valuable player this season. He set the NFL career record for most kickoff returns for touchdowns.
