Yay another below average center. Hopefully Oluwatimi steps up and wins the job this year.
He played FB for the Browns.
Nick Harris??? Negative.

btw he has only start 4 games in 4 seasons...
Not negative. He actually played more as a Fullback.
Throughout his four seasons with the Browns, Harris started four games at center. He was in line for the starting in 2022 before suffering a season-ending knee injury in the first preseason game of that year. He returned this season as the backup to Ethan Pocic, but also as the Browns’ starting fullback.
Not sure how excited I am about a guy who has started four games, and couldn't beat out Pocic. But, sorry, it's true. He was there Fullback last year. I imagine he played more snaps at FB than at Center.

He might have lined up like a fullback but had no carries. Basically a lineman in the backfield.

Zero mention of Fullback here:

Did Grubb ever use 300 pounders as FB? If not it is probably irrelevant..

Rest in Peace, Arthur. You rocked it, bro. Also, we share a name.

What’s relevant is he played more snaps at FB than Center because he couldn’t beat out the guy we couldn’t wait to get rid of not that many years ago.

Yes that is relevant but I doubt they signed him to replace Bellore instead of Evan Brown. He will likely compete with Olu for C not for the vacant FB position.
