Warriors in the Pros: Veikune, Hawthorne, RGM

Stephen Tsai reports (I think he was the first to report) that David Veikune signed a 4-year, $3.5 million contract with the Cleveland Browns.

David Veikune and the Cleveland Browns have reached agreement on a four-year contract worth about $3.5 million, an NFL source said.
Of that amount, $1.8 million is guarnteed.
The guaranteed portion also is protected against skill and injury.
Agent Kenny Zuckerrman of Priority Sports declined to comment on the specifics. But he said "David has worked very hard to make this happen, and I feel fortunate ot be able to help him. He's a model client."

C.J. Hawthorne is currently on the Buffalo Bills' physically-unable-to-perform list.

James Hardy and C.J. Hawthorne were also not ready to practice and were placed on active PUP. Being on active PUP Hardy and Hawthorne can come off of PUP and re-join the active roster as soon as they pass a physical.

Hawthorne had surgery on his left foot in during the team’s mandatory minicamp in June. To this point no prognosis has been given on his possible return.

Both Hardy and Hawthorne watched Saturday morning’s practice from the sidelines.

After starting the first two games for the BC Lions, Ryan Grice-Mullen did not dress for this past Friday's game against the Calgary Stampeders. Not sure if it was due to injury or demotion, but either way it's not good news for RGM.
