Browns Like Terrelle Pryor Enough To Discuss Contract Extension, Report Says

Terrelle Pryor, who was drafted as a quarterback out of Ohio 

State by the Raiders in the 2011 supplemental draft but is 

having a breakout season as a wide receiver, has engaged 

in preliminary discussions about a contract extension with 

the Browns, Cleveland.com reports.

Pryor’s current one-year deal worth $1.67 million is set to 

expire at season’s end, when he would become a free 

agent unless he is re-signed by the Browns. The team 

has nearly $50 million in salary cap space.

His agent, Drew Rosenhaus, has been in Cleveland 

recently, the report notes.

Pryor, who leads the team with 33 catches, 413 receiving 

yards and four total touchdowns, said that last month he 

wants to remain a member of the Browns as long as 

Jackson is coach.

"I respect him very highly and if Hue Jackson's here, I'd 

love to stay here,'' Pryor told the website. "I want to be 

here if Hue's going to be here for a while, because I know 

this is a building process — and it's not really. We're right 

there. We're competing with everybody, we've just got to 

put teams away and I'd like to be where Hue's at."

That’s about as positive an attitude as one could expect 

from a player on the NFL’s only winless team through six 

weeks of the season.
