With mandatory minicamp starting Tuesday, many of the top stars for the Cleveland Browns have community events scheduled around this time. Myles Garrett had his youth football camp where he also took kids to see the new Jurassic Park movie. Denzel Ward has his youth camp scheduled later in the month after minicamp.
Kareem Hunt once again held a charity event this year. Last year, Hunt’s charity bowling and top golf event was attended by head coach Kevin Stefanski.
With negativity surrounding the team’s acquisition of Deshaun Watson, Browns players have done a great job of engaging the community with these events.
Hunt’s top golf event was attended by Andrew Berry this year:

There have been murmurs of Hunt possibly being on the trade block this year. With one year left on his contract, the team having five capable running backs and a few needs at other positions, Hunt could bring back the most in a trade.
However, the Elyria native and Toledo product has made it clear that he loves playing for Cleveland. His consistent engagement with the community since being acquired is further proof of that. Trading Hunt would, likely, cause concerns in the locker room and the community especially after the running back has seemed to turn things around after his own off-the-field issues.
Last year’s event benefited the Boys & Girls Clubs of Northeast Ohio.
