Browns Get Royal

The Cleveland Browns have added a player to its roster in an attempt to fill the void left by recently traded Pro-Bowl TE Kellen Winslow, by signing former Buffalo Bills TE Robert Royal. Terms of the contract were not disclosed.

Royal caught 33 passes for 351 yards and one touchdown last season for the Buffalo Bills. He was drafted in 2002 by the Washington Redskins and is known primarily for his blocking. Royal will join Steve Heiden, and last season's 4th round draft choice (111th overall) Martin Rucker.
