5 Cleveland Browns whose stocks are up after Colts rally falters
1. Sheldrick Redwine
The Browns have a safety problem, yet there was no fix. Fans kept witnessing the same thing, week after week.
Sheldrick Redwine was sitting on the depth chart, yet couldn’t sniff the field. Through the first four weeks, the 2019 fifth-round pick was relegated to a special teams role.
Opportunity knocked against the Colts, though, and Redwine answered, scoring a big interception in the fourth quarter. He had replaced Ronnie Harrison, who had stellar pick of his own, scoring a pick-six off Phillip Rivers in the third quarter.
It was one play, but that’s just it. It was a PLAY, something the Browns have been missing at safety for the first quarter of the season.
With the Browns pass rush crashing down, Rivers tried to power a throw to tight end Mo Alie-Cox in-between the hashes, but he never saw Redwine lurking.
Harrison got the start in place of Karl Joseph, and Redwine followed Harrison. “Next man up” is what teams preach, and Redwine put the mantra into practice.
