BEREA, Ohio — The Browns are signing a kicker on Friday. It won’t be one who can solve their current kicking troubles.
Former kicker Phil Dawson will sign a contract with the team and officially retire as a member of the Cleveland Browns.
“To have the opportunity to come back home and retire with the organization and the city that I love is incredibly meaningful to me,” Dawson said in a release from the team. “It only seems right to have the opportunity to do this with the fans that have been so good to me and my family.
Dawson began kicking for the Browns when the team returned to Cleveland in 1999. He was with the team through 2012 and holds team records for most career field goals (305), highest career field goal percentage (84.0), most field goals in a season (30 in 2008), highest field goal percentage in a season (93.5 in 2012), field goals in a game (six on Nov. 5, 2006), most consecutive field goals made (29) and most consecutive games with a field
He kicked there for four seasons before spending the final two years of his career in Arizona.
Dawson became one of the most beloved members of the post-move Browns. His most memorable moments might have come in the 2007 season, when the Browns went 10-6 but missed the postseason. His 51-yard kick in Baltimore that bounced off the stanchion of the goal post forced overtime and he later won the game in overtime with a 33-yard kick.
