![]() We got a small glimpse of him in Atlanta in the third preseason game, which included two targets (one of which was a pass interference), but that exposure did little to clarify his Week 1 readiness. We knew he dealt with quarterback consistency issues at Auburn, but there were issues with varying route types - that tempo for route variance was something he worked on this offseason with Stefon Diggs, among others. Keep in mind, the lack of Training Camp availability and preseason performances due to a hamstring injury meant the exposure to Schwartz's level of competence was not immediately clear. There are numerous levels to playing receiver at the sport's highest levels beyond just running past people with Olympic speed, but what left me surprised with Schwartz was he displayed some of those nuanced traits far earlier than any anticipated. While the immense speed threat of Schwartz is what stands out his profile, there was logical thought he would be used as more of a gadget player until his surrounding skill-set rounded into form at the NFL level. However, we were all caught by surprise when rookie Anthony Schwartz filled in right off the start. While there was a clear need for Beckham to return and fill the vertical void in the Browns' passing attack, if here was unable to go, the logical thought was Rashard Higgins would fill the role he handled last year in Beckham's absence. ![]() Please join us in thanking Mike for his many contributions and wishing him well as he embarks on his next chapter.(Photo: Jay Biggerstaff-USA TODAY Sports)ĬLEVELAND, Ohio - As the Browns traveled to Kansas City for the season opener, questions around Odell Beckham Jr.'s knee left some mystery around who would fill his role if the star receiver was unable to suit up.
