NFL: Texas Tech QB Harrell to work with Browns

Associated Press

CLEVELAND — After going undrafted, Texas Tech quarterback Graham Harrell has agreed to attend the Cleveland Browns' rookie minicamp this weekend.

The record-setting passer does not have a contract with the team.

"Yes, he will participate in the minicamp," agent Chad Speck said in an e-mail. The Browns would not confirm inviting Harrell to the minicamp, which runs from Friday through Sunday.

Harrell threw an NCAA-record 134 touchdown passes. More impressive was his completion percentage — above 70 in two 5,000-yard seasons.

He also was one of 15 finalists for the Draddy Trophy, which goes to the nation's top scholar-athlete and was won by the Browns first-round pick, center Alex Mack.

Cleveland already has Brady Quinn, Derek Anderson and Brett Ratliff on the roster at quarterback.
