Pro Experience
Cleveland Browns (2002-present)
2003: An already-disappointing season was derailed due to off-the-field issues involving an arrest for possession and a domestic incident... Started the first seven games of the season... Best game of the season was against Oakland (26 carries, 145 yards, 5.6 average, 1 TD)... Also went over 100 yards against Pittsburgh (115 yards on 31 carries)... Wound up with 559 yards and one touchdown for the season... Missed eighth game of the season due to shoulder injury suffered against San Diego... Was suspended by the Browns for one game, and then by the NFL for the remainder of the year.... Hugely disappointing season considering an excellent second half the season before.
2002: Appeared in all sixteen games, starting ten... Was slow to start, but emerged as one of the league's most explosive backs the second half of the season... Wound up with 887 yards and six touchdowns... Most of his production came in the last seven games (726 yards, five TDs)... Was outstanding in season finale against Atlanta, running for 178 yards and two TDs, including a 64-yard run for a touchdown... The win got the Browns into the playoffs for the first time in the expansion era... Also went over 100 yards against New Orleans and Jacksonville.
