Sounds like a lot of horseshit to me...
Howard Eskin: Cleveland Browns Allegedly Could be for Sale

The Cleveland Browns are allegedly one of a handful of NFL teams that are for sale according to WIP’s Howard Eskin.
In a tweet regarding the ex-Philadelphia Eagles president buying the Bills, Eskin, the Eagles’ sideline reporter, states that league sources tell him the Browns join the St. Louis Rams and Buffalo franchise as teams that are also for sale.
Current Cleveland Browns owner Randy Lerner inherited the team following the passing of his father Al who owned the team since their return in 1999. Lerner’s tenure has been a disappointment to many with the Browns having made the playoffs one time since his family obtained ownership. Despite a lack of overall success, it is speculated that the value of the team has doubled since 1999.
It is speculated that while Lerner may not be actively seeking sale, the team can be had for the right price.
(Update: Per Browns PR via The Plain Dealer’s Mary Kay Cabot, the Browns are not for sale.)
