Travis Hughes Signs with Cleveland Browns

Posted May 5, 2015
Travis Hughes had faith that things would work out for him. Hughes starred at North Carolina but wasn't sure if he had done enough to get drafted. Before and during the draft, he heard from several teams. The Cleveland Browns coaching staff told him they liked his competitiveness. "I really started hearing from them over the last couple of weeks," said Hughes, who leaves next Monday for mini-camp. (Virginian-Pilot)
