Should have gave him a shot. Couldn't be any worse than what they have.

Random guys shows up to tryout

Apparently the guy thought showing up at an NFL team's facility unannounced, was the best way to get a tryout. The man, a former high school player from New Mexico, made it onto the team's practice field before being spotted and immediately escorted out of the facility.

The man didn't get to try out, but it seems he was prepared to. According to FoxSports.com, the guy was carrying a 'very large backpack' that might have contained his own football equipment.

When a Browns staffer eventually talked to the man, the man explained that he came to Cleveland specifically to try out for the Browns.

You never know who is going to walk through that door. Give the guy a tryout. Making the team means you earned your spot, and that means you can come from all walks of life, from different backgrounds.

This is America, dammit.

Did the Browns not learn from their fellow team in Cleveland with Willy Mays Hayes?

If he's ever played any receiver, they should sign him.
