Browns fans are sounding off about the possibility of moving the Cleveland Browns Stadium from downtown to a site near the airport that would be in Brook Park. The team’s owners floated the idea earlier this week.

Browns fans spoke on Wednesday, all agreeing they would prefer to keep the stadium right where it is.


The team’s owners, Jimmy and Dee Haslam say they are considering both options, keeping the stadium here or moving it to the suburbs, and neither option is above the other.

The Haslams say they continue to be in talks with Mayor Justin Bibb and the city of Cleveland. The $2 billion price tag and the source of funding right now is unknown. The Haslams say it is not feasible to add a dome to the existing stadium. They also say they have no plans of moving the team outside of Northeast Ohio.

Mayor Bibb has said keeping the Browns downtown is a priority, as he continues to negotiate with the team. The mayor of Brook Park, Edward Orcutt, says nothing is imminent and he doesn’t want to speculate on possible outcomes.
