The Bengals turned back to offense in the fourth round of the draft Joe Montana Jersey Limited , filling their need for a backup running back.

They picked up Mark Walton from Miami with the 112th overall pick. He missed most of last season with an injured right ankle.

Although the Bengals’ main focus on offense has been fixing the line, they also needed a running back. Jeremy Hill signed with New England after the season, leaving Joe Mixon as the featured back. Giovani Bernard returns for his sixth season. Walton is 5-foot-10 and reminds the Bengals of Bernard.

One big attraction: Walton played on Miami’s kickoff and punt coverage teams, so he can fit on special teams immediately.



The Cleveland Browns have announced that franchise star Joe Thomas is retiring, after 11 phenomenal seasons in the NFL:.@joethomas73 is calling it a career.See you in Canton Frank Ragnow Lions Jersey , Joe.馃摪 禄 https://t.co/BoYpcxVcIg#ThankYou73 pic.twitter.com/gzEa8Z6tPK— Cleveland Browns (@Browns) March 14, 2018Thomas was drafted third-overall by the Browns in 2007, and he was easily worth the investment. He was named to the Pro Bowl in each of his first 10 seasons, and was also a seven-time First-team All-Pro selection.On top of that, Thomas defined the term "iron man." He didn't miss a single game until Week 7 of the 2017 season Christian Kirk Cardinals Jersey , suffering a torn triceps injury that ended his season. As such, Thomas had a streak of playing in 10,363 consecutive snaps.Thomas became one of the NFL's most popular players for many reasons, especially due to his incredible sportsmanship and humbleness, despite playing on a Browns team that never took him to the playoffs. Thomas stayed loyal to the franchise throughout his career Braden Smith Colts Jersey , and is a sure lock for the Hall of Fame.During the 2017 offseason, Thomas told ESPN that he was suffering short-term memory loss, but understood it was a risk in playing football. It's safe to assume that is why he opted to retire, because Thomas was still playing at an elite form in 2017.The Browns were rumored to be after former New England Patriots left tackle Nate Solder in free agency, as he would have been the perfect replacement for Thomas.However Dan Bailey Jersey Elite , Solder inked a massive four-year contract with the New York Giants worth $62 million. The Browns own the first and fourth picks in the draft, so there is a chance they opt to find Thomas' replacement there - or in a later round.The Browns are going to look a whole lot different next season. They've acquired quarterback Tyrod Taylor and star wideout Jarvis Landry in separate trades. On top of that, they signed offensive lineman Chris Hubbard to a five-year deal and are expected to land running back Carlos Hyde.Though Thomas' retirement does sting, the Browns at least are looking much better on paper..
