Browns re-sign three

Football Betting Lines

03/17/2010 - Berea, OH (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Cleveland Browns announced the re-signing of linebacker Marcus Benard, linebacker Blake Costanzo and running back Chris Jennings on Wednesday.

All three had been exclusive rights players, meaning they had no negotiating power with the club. A player falls under this category when his contract expires and he has accrued fewer than two full seasons of service time.

Benard signed with the team as an undrafted free agent in 2009 and appeared in six games, recording 3 1/2 sacks, which ranked him sixth among all rookies.

Costanzo played in all 16 games and notched 14 tackles, three fumble recoveries and one forced fumble in a special teams role. Jennings played in nine games and ran for 220 yards and one touchdown while catching nine passes for 56 yards.

MySportsbook.com Posts Heisman Trophy Odds

With 3,919 passing yards, 32 touchdowns and a mere seven interceptions last season, combined with a powerful South Bend Heisman legacy, odds makers at MySportsbook.com have given Notre Dame senior quarterback Brady Quinn the best Heisman Trophy odds at 5-2.

Quinn isn’t the only big man on campus this season.  Oklahoma junior running back and 2004 Heisman runner-up Adrian Peterson, listed at 7-2, rushed for a combined 3,033 yards in his first two years as a college player and will give Quinn a run for his money. 

This online sportsbook has also listed Troy Smith, Ohio State senior quarterback, as another strong favorite to win the 72nd Heisman Trophy.  A 7-1 bet, Smith threw for 2,282 yards last season and also led the Buckeyes to a convincing 34-20 victory over Quinn and the Fighting Irish in last season’s Fiesta Bowl.
