June 1 (The Sports Xchange) -
The Cleveland Browns agreed to terms to acquire safety Calvin Pryor
from the New York Jets for linebacker Demario Davis on Thursday.
Pryor reportedly was on the trade block after the Jets selected
safeties Jamal Adams and Marcus Maye in the first two rounds of the
2017 NFL draft.
Pryor collected 60 tackles and one forced fumble in 15 games last
season and was selected by New York with the 18th overall pick in
the 2014 draft.
Davis spent his first four seasons with the Jets before signing with
the Browns as an unrestricted free agent in 2016. He finished second
on the team with 99 tackles last year and had two sacks and one
forced fumble.

The Indianapolis Colts signed free agent running back Christine
Michael.
The Colts waived running back Brandon Radcliff to make room for
Michael, who will be employed by his fourth NFL team since being
selected in the second round of the 2013 NFL draft out of Texas A&M.
Michael, who signed a one-year, $800,000 deal in March, was released
by the Green Bay Packers on May 1 after the team selected three
running backs in the 2017 NFL draft.

touchdown passes with Penn State. That total is the second-most in a
single season in school history.
