Browns' rookie KC Concepcion catches the attention of NFL legend
NFL legend Chad Johnson co-signs Browns' rookie number switch.
Cleveland Browns ' rookie KC Concepcion made quite the statement over the weekend . He showed up at the annual NFLPA Rookie Premiere but did so not wearing the number 17, but sporting the number 1. It was a surprise to Browns ' fans as everyone expected running back Quinshon Judkins to switch back to his college number in his second year after he announced a number change from 10.
He and the rookie came to an agreement, and Concepcion landed with the number one. Now, the number 1 is typically reserved for one of the best players on the team. This is quite the statement that is being made by Concepcion, so much so that NFL legend Chad Johnson weighed in on X.
He posted, "Heavy is the crown wearing that uno. Give 'em hell. " Heavy is the crown wearing that Uno, give em hell young boul š«” https://t.

Hurts has been sporting the one for his entire career as he quarterbacked the Philadelphia Eagles back into NFL relevance.
