Browns Go Crazy While Mic'd Up Celebrating Damon Sheehy-Guiseppi's Punt Return TD

Sheehy-Guiseppi joined Cleveland's roster after sneaking into a workout with team executive Alonzo Highsmith.

Browns rookie Damon Sheehy-Guiseppi scored a punt return touchdown for Cleveland in its preseason matchup with the Redskins on Thursday, but his score was not a run of the mill exhibition TD.

Sheehy-Guiseppi joined the Browns after earning a workout in truly unconvential fashion. The 24-year-old was previously sleeping outside in Miami and spent "his last $200 on training services" with NFL trainer Pete Bommarito, according to the Browns. Sheehy-Guiseppi then attended a workout with Cleveland vice president of player personnel Alonzo Highsmith, but was only allowed entry after talking his way past security. 

Sheehy-Guiseppi is the perfect longshot story for the preseason, and the Browns celebrated accordingly following his return touchdown against Washington.

The misery of the Hue Jackson era appears to be a thing in the past with head coach Freddie Kitchens and quarterback Baker Mayfield now leading the way. Perhaps Sheey-Guiseppi can stick on the Browns' roster as they aim to reach the postseason for the first time since 2002.
