Welcome to the From the Podium podcast. I'm Brock Dannehy. The Browns kicked off week two of the preseason with practice on Monday. The Vikings visit Cleveland later this week for joint practices and a game on Saturday at Cleveland Brown Stadium. On today's podcast, you'll hear from newly acquired

center Nick Harris, cornerback MJ Emerson, passing game specialist and tight-ends coach Tommy

Reese, and head coach Kevin Stefansky. First up is center Nick Harris, who talks about

his hectic weekend after being traded from Seattle to Cleveland. Welcome back. Appreciate it.

How do you feel about this?

I'm glad to have a job, have an opportunity to come back and just compete in a place I'm

comfortable in and it feels good to see all my teammates again and see everybody around

the building.

So, you know, I can't complain at all.

When did you come of get the hint that

this was this was a possibility uh two days ago yeah two days ago was i kind of i kind of

was talking to some people and you know saw what what might might happen so uh were you

were you working out at center exclusively yeah yeah yeah yep, yeah, yeah. Yep, I was running center.

So what have your last, like, 12 hours?

Yeah, I mean, I got the news,

packed up my stuff, got on a red eye,

got here this morning at 6th,

at the walkthrough now.

I'm talking to all.

Are you from so I went to I went to school there so but I spent a lot of time out there but any feelings about having leave home

again not really not really it's what this I mean it's what this business entails you, it's got to be ready to move it at a moment's notice. So no attachment involves. You got to continue to work wherever I'm at, so. Do you bring your fullback playbook? Hopefully. Hopefully. Do you think that was a big part of why they went out and got you that you played so well there last year? I don't know. I mean, not sure. I think just the familiarity is good and, you know, being back in the, around the same guys, playing around the same guys is also, you know, that's a plus, you know, being comfortable around those guys. So I think that that's probably more so what it is

how did you like that fullback was fun yeah it was definitely fun it was definitely fun it was
