Browns great Milt Morin passes away

Today we share a very sad news, Brown's great Milt Morin has passed away
The Brown Log had done several features on Morin, and personally he was one of my first heroes on the Browns. It's really sad to see this once great warrior pass away and even more sad that he died only one week before he was to be inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame.

RIP Milt.

Brown's history: Milt Morin



Before Ozzie Newsome changed the tight end position, the typical NFL tight end was a big bruising blocker with good hands but rarely used like Newsome was as a long range threat. Tight ends like John Mackey and Mike Ditka typified the position. Milt Morin was Cleveland's tight end in the late sixties and early seventies. He was a consistent presence who could block and was always a threat to catch a short pass and gain 10 - 15 yards while bowling over some poor defensive back.
