In a heartwarming display of affection, Joe Haden has decided to end his career just where it started. Drew Rosenhaus, the agent of Joe Haden, informed ESPN reporter Adam Schefter of this decision on Tuesday. Haden will reportedly sign a one-day contract with the Cleveland Browns, where he started his NFL journey 12 years ago. Haden played for the Browns for seven seasons starting from 2010 to 2017 as a cornerback. After that, the Browns’ management released him and he subsequently joined the Pittsburgh Steelers. Haden got his name included in the Pro Bowl team three times. Experts regarded him as one of the best cornerbacks in his prime. CLOSURE OF A NOTEWORTHY NFL CAREER The Cleveland Browns [https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/nfl/cleveland-browns/] picked Joe Haden as the 7th pick overall in the first round of the 2010 NFL draft. Although he started his career as a backup, Haden soon rose to prominence through consistently impressive displays. In 2011, the Browns HC Pat Shurmur named him as the starting cornerback. Mild stuttering occurred in his career in 2012 when he tested positive for the performance-enhancing drug Adderall. As the consequence, the NFL authority suspended him for four weeks. to Trey Lance’s Season Ending Injury and His Former Patriots Buddy Jimmy Garoppolo Takes Over for 49ers [https://www.essentiallysports.com/nfl-news-everybody-is-probably-pretty-happy-says-tom-brady-bluntly-reacting-to-trey-lances-season-ending-injury-and-his-former-patriots-buddy-jimmy-garoppolo-takes-over-for-49ers/] However, Joe Haden scripted an amazing comeback with gritty displays while getting selected to the Pro Bowl teams for two consecutive seasons. Cleveland Browns released Haden in 2017 after he reportedly rejected [https://www.behindthesteelcurtain.com/nfl-pittsburgh-steelers-news/2017/8/30/16228704/joe-haden-turns-down-other-deals-to-sign-3-year-contract-with-the-pittsburgh-steelers-nfl-free-agent] a decrement in salary. The CB signed for the Pittsburgh Steelers and was a player there for five years. FANS REACT ON TWITTER TO THE DECISION OF JOE HADEN Joe Haden’s return to the Browns might overshadow the fact that he had quite a successful outing at Pittsburgh Steelers [https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/nfl/pittsburgh-steelers/]. Haden played his first playoff game for the Steelers. He also got selected for his 3rd Pro Bowl team while playing for the Steelers. Fans look back at the time they experienced watching the defensive star in action. Players come and go, but the memories that they create on-field remain forever. The nostalgia fans experienced after hearing about Haiden’s return to Cleveland carries proof that the NFL community will continue remembering him for years to come.

<h2 style="text-align: center">Cleveland Browns 2022: News, Schedule, Roster, Score, Injury Report</h2>
<p style="text-align: center">The Cleveland Browns were founded by Paul Brown and businessman Arthur B. McBride as a charter member of the All-American Football Conference in 1945. The early days of the AAFC were dominated by the Browns as they racked up an impressive 47-4-3 record through the league’s four seasons.  The Browns continued their dominance through the dissolution of the AAFC and joined up the NFL alongside the San Francisco 49’ers and the Baltimore Colts.</p>
<img class="aligncenter wp-image-497445 size-full" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/20201230182931/take.jpg" alt="" width="747" height="560" />
<p style="text-align: center">The club won their inaugural NFL season as well as the 1954, 1955, 1964 seasons. What’s more, they managed to pull off an unmatched feat by playing in their league championship game in each of the Browns’ first ten years of existence. However, the Browns weren’t able to maintain their upward trajectory much longer as they didn’t win another championship from 1965 to 1995 despite making the NFL playoffs 14 times.</p>
<p style="text-align: center">Since 1999, the Browns have continually struggled to find success. They have had only one playoff appearance in 2002 and only three winning seasons in 2002, 2007, and 2020. Additionally, there have been no playoff wins and winning less than one-third of their games in totality.  What’s more, the front office hasn’t seen much stability either with multiple Head Coaching changes since 1999 (10 full time and two interim).</p>
<img class="aligncenter wp-image-497448 size-full" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/20201230183202/baker.jpg" alt="" width="1000" height="600" />

The Cleveland Browns have improved on their 6-10 season from 2019 going 11-5 in 2020 and placed third in the AFC North. The franchise went on to win the Wild  Card round by upsetting the Pittsburgh Steelers winning out 48-37.

However, they went on to lose the divisional playoffs to the defending champions Kansas City Chiefs 17-22.

Mahomes would suffer an injury on the play. Mandatory Credit: Jay Biggerstaff-USA TODAY Sports[/caption]
<h2 style="text-align: center">Logo</h2>
<p style="text-align: center">The 1970s saw the Browns use their orange helmet as the logo with a facemask. In 1986, the franchise went for a dramatic overhaul that saw a more 3-D helmet model and an updated facemask. Some of the shadows were removed from the logo and the angle was altered in 1993.</p>
<img class="aligncenter wp-image-497446 size-full" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/20201230183007/sharp.jpg" alt="" width="1280" height="1151" />
<p style="text-align: center">Since 1999, the Browns have made quite a few changes to their logos. After the 2005 season, the team made a slight adjustment to the orange color of the helmet and to the grey facemask. A more recent iteration of the Cleveland Browns identity came in the form of a ‘safety’ orange-colored helmet.</p>

<h2 style="text-align: center">Cleveland Browns Owner Achievements</h2>
<p style="text-align: center">Jimmy Arthur Haslam III is a sports executive who is the co-owner of the Cleveland Browns alongside his wife Dee Haslam. Additionally, he’s the CEO of the Pilot Flying J truck stop chain. His father, Jim Haslam founded the Pilot Corporation in 1958 as the Pilot Oli Corporation.</p>
<img class="aligncenter wp-image-497450 size-full" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/20201230183320/haslam.jpg" alt="" width="1920" height="1238" />
<p style="text-align: center">Furthermore, Haslam bought a minority interest in the Pittsburgh Steelers in 2008, and in 2012 he went on to purchase the Cleveland Browns for $1 billion. Forbes magazine valued the Browns at $977 million in 2011. The NFL rules prohibit ownership of multiple teams so Haslam sold his interest in the Steelers.</p>

<h2 style="text-align: center">Cleveland Browns 2022 Sponsors</h2>
<p style="text-align: center">FirstEnergy Corp comes out as the naming rights sponsor of the Cleveland Browns. Arby’s Foundation had a tie-up with the Browns foundation wherein 520 students in need received free WiFi for one year to help a student who is engaged in their education and remote learning during the COVID-19 pandemic.</p>
<p style="text-align: center">The Browns also have a deal with Splash Financial with a goal to help fans save money on their student loans. Moreover, Electronic Merchant Systems (EMS), a leading Cleveland based provider of merchant services and payment processing solutions. Through the partnership, EMS and the Browns have hosted the annual toy drive to benefit thousands of local kids during the holiday season.</p>
