CLEVELAND - In a switch, Greg Little was dropped by the Browns. Sean Couturier Jersey . The inconsistent wide receiver, whose flashes of excellence were often overshadowed by crucial drops and off-the-field drama, was released on Friday. The 24-year-old Little became expendable after Cleveland added veteran wide receivers Miles Austin and Earl Bennett to its roster on Thursday. Those moves were made for insurance in case Pro Bowl wide receiver Josh Gordon is suspended by the league for failing another drug test for marijuana. Gordon was suspended for the first two games last season, but led the league with 1,646 yards receiving. Last week, Browns general manager Ray Farmer said he believed Little could improve. "The young mans talented," Farmer said during the NFL draft. "The question mark would then fall onto can he be consistent and do the things that he has physically demonstrated he can do at times. If he continues to do those things and add a level of consistency, the difference between being good and great is consistency. "When a guy shows you he can do anything, he shows you he can jump up and make the one-handed catch, he shows you he can break a tackle, the question then is can he repeatedly do that over and over again. Thats the difference between being average or marginal and good or great." Littles departure ends a sometimes turbulent three-year run for him in Cleveland. The Browns drafted Little, a former running back at North Carolina, in the second round in 2011. And while he produced — he led the team in receptions in 2011 and 2012 — the 6-foot-3, 225-pound Little let too many passes slip from his hands and he had his share of other non-football issues. Last season, Little vowed to act more responsibly after it was revealed that he crashed his car driving 127 mph — more than 70 mph over the legal speed limit. He called his actions "mindless." Little was cited for drag racing and he expressed remorse for putting his life, and the life of a passenger in his expensive car, in danger. Little was reprimanded by then-coach Rob Chudzinski, who did not reveal his punishment. Little joined the Browns with a history of questionable decision-making. He was issued 93 parking tickets on multiple vehicles with nine different license plates while he was at North Carolina. In November, the school sent a letter of "permanent disassociation" to Little and other former Tar Heels football players for his role in the program receiving NCAA violations that led to criminal charges against five people for violating the states sports agent law. Little and others were suspended in 2010 for accepting improper benefits, including cash and travel accommodations. Little acknowledged his actions distressed others. "Theres a lot of people that Ive hurt," he said, "and I think a lot of the blame should be put on me much less than attacking other people." Little was typically candid when speaking to the media and he seemed to be maturing as a person and player. In 41 starts over three seasons with the Browns, Little caught 155 passes for 1,821 yards and eight touchdowns. He had 41 catches for 465 yards and two TDs last season. ___ AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and www.twitter.com/AP_NFL ;Jaromir Jagr Jersey .

Highlights from Scotland’s Group F World Cup qualifier against Slovakia One-hundred per cent we can go to Wembley and win. England might not like it but of course we can do it, he said after the Slovakia defeat.Theyve scored a last ditch winner against 10-man Slovakia, theyve not won tonight and theyve scored two against Malta. England are the best side in the group in my opinion but theyre not firing. Watch NOW TV Watch Sky Sports for just ￡6.99. No contract. Theyve got managerial problems. The selection problems might just have a little negative influence in the campp so we go there, yes low on confidence. Brandon Manning Jersey. We can go to Wembley and we can win that game of football without a doubt but we have to play at a top level.Cut out silly mistakes, be absolutely on the money with selection as well and that is a decision Gordon will have until that game comes along. Slovakias Jan Durica and Scotlands Steven Fletcher battle for the ball during the game in Trnava Three points against England would see Scotland on level points with their home nations rivals, and McCann believes Strachans men can get themselves back in contention for World Cup qualification.If we go to Wembley and win that game, were right in it again. Gordon will be sitting back and thinking this is the only positive from tonight, in my opinion, the pundit added.It is a tough group, but you need to find some form and momentum that you can start to build on and that confidence starts to motor on from behind it. Russell Martin says Scotlands 3-0 defeat to Slovakia is tough to take If you continue to stumble, not scoring goals, conceding poor goals, not quite getting things moving the way you want to go then youll continue to stumble and drop silly points.Were lucky were still in it tonight because if England had beaten Slovenia, then forget winning the group. I still think its a big ask because England in my opinion are absolute favourites, but you go to Wembley, you do take three points then its game on again.
