For years, the Cleveland Browns have teased about building a new stadium.
The fans have engaged in a never-ending debate about whether they should build a dome or continue to make the weather a big factor in their home field.
That’s why the fans were so disappointed to know that their stadium-related announcement had nothing to do with that.
The team announced that the Cleveland Browns Stadium would be called Huntington Bank Field.
Your second home has a new name.

At the end of the day, the only thing that will matter will be their record at the end of the season.
The Browns have one of the best defenses in the entire league.
They’re well-coached and have added some firepower to their offense as well, so there’s not much time or room for excuses anymore.
This will be a make-or-break season for Deshaun Watson.
He’s been there for three years now, and the Browns have nothing to show for that.
They gave up too much to get him, and it’s time he pays them back.
They made the playoffs last season with 39-year-old Joe Flacco behind center, so the expectation is that they take another leap forward now that Watson is healthy.
Anything short of a postseason win and solid numbers from the Clemson product could lead the team to have some awkward conversations about his future at Huntington Bank Field.
