Check....Isaiah Crowell is  tied for  #9. 

2 more names.  Hint:  old school.

Bobby Mitchell? Not sure he was here long enough though 

[Browns149]

Racking my brain, Otto Graham has to be on the list. If we are counting all players, not just rb’s

Back in the old days it was a running game and quarterbacks mixed it up more than most do today.

21 Phipps 11
23 Sipe 11
31 Plum 8
49 Kizer 5
52 Anderson 5
54 Ryan 4
59 Frye 4
61 Kosar 4
62 Testeverde 4

67 Mayfield 3

71 Cribbs 2 along with Couch, RGIII, Garcia and a bunch at 2, 1 and 0.   Your mind can play tricks on you over time !

How about a WR? Dub Jones

Jones is the correct answer.   But he was, I think one of those hybrid  HB/WR types.  like Bobby Mitchell.

Answers  Top Ten Browns in Rushing TDs:

1. Jim Brown 106

2. Leroy Kelley  74

3. Mike Pruitt  47

4. Kevin Mack 46

5. Otto Graham  44

6. Marion Motley  31

7. Ernest Byner  27

8. Greg Pruitt 25

9. Isaiah Crowell 21

9. Dub Jones  21

13.  Nick Chubb  16 so far.   I think it possible that he gets up to near Motley before season's end. (assuming a full season)

He's also the father of Colts QB Bert Jones. 

And he holds the all-time Browns record with six touchdowns in one game.

Here is today's question.....sort of the finale of the "triple set"

Name the Top Ten in Browns history in TD receptions.

[Dutch Oven]

Ozzie Newsome

 Paul Warfield

 Webster Slaughter

 Dante Lavelli

 Gary Collins

Dave Logan

Mac Speedie

Braylon Edwards

Reggie Langhorne

Kevin Johnson

[mjp28]

Gary Collins one of my old favorites, Paul Warfield still ticked the browns traded him, Ozzie, Slaughter, Braylon.

And the oldies Lavelli, Speedie the other three are all in a heap of modern and older players.
